PREFACE 



Mr. Moore has written both a memoir of Bishop Phillips and 
a brief account of his MS. for this volume, so there hardly remains 
anything to be said in the preface. I may however mention, that 
the two Prayer-books, as now printed in parallel columns, would 
form a larger volume than it has been the custom of the Manx 
Society to issue. It has, accordingly, been deemed advisable to 
divide the work into two volumes, the first of which will be found 
to end most conveniently with the Commination Service, while the 
second will contain the text of the Psalms, followed by appendices, 
and an essay on the phonology of Manx Gaelic by the writer of 
these lines. 

With regard to the English text of the Epistles and Gospels 
which we have appended to the Manx, it is but right to say 
that this is an exact transcript of the English revision of 1604, 
and that it forms, as we are led to understand, the only reprint 
of those portions probably in existence. 

I wish to take this opportunity of referring to the part which 
Mr. Moore and I have respectively taken in the work. The 
whole labour of transcribing the MS. for the press and of 
collating the printed copy with the original has fallen upon 
Mr. Moore, my help having been confined to a collation of the 
first sheet of the older text. I may, however, state that I perused 



VI PREFACE. 

the sheets as they issued from the press, and that I plied 
Mr. Moore with a number of questions on their contents, which 
involved him in a repeated scrutiny of the original. 

Let me, in conclusion, congratulate the Manx Society on 
having now made the earliest and longest MS. in the Manx 
language accessible to all. By so doing they have laid Celtic 
scholars under a lasting obligation, and have set an example 
worthy of being followed by many a more numerous society in 
Great Britain and Ireland.

BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. 

John Phillips, the reputed translator of the Prayer-book into Manx, 
was a native of North Wales, He was a member of St. Mary Hall at 
Oxford, where he took his degree of B.A. in 1579, and proceeded 
to that of M.A. in 1584. Shortly afterwards, he was appointed Vicar 
of Thorpe-Bassett in Yorkshire. In 1587 he was appointed Rector 
of Andreas and Archdeacon of Man, and in 1590 he became chap- 
Iain to Henry, Earl of Derby. In 159 1 he was Rector of Slingsby in 
Yorkshire, and, in 160 1, Archdeacon of Cleveland. With all these other 
appointments, it is not likely that he paid much attention to his duties 
in Man. Indeed, we only hear of him as present at a convocation 
there in 1597, and at a consistory court in 1604; and it is probable 
that he only came over when in attendance on the Earl of Derby as 
(^ his chaplain. In 1605 * he, while still holding the office of Archdeacon 
of Man, was appointed Bishop of Sodor and Man, in succession to 
Dr. Lloyd, who was translated to Chester. After his accession to this 
important office, he seems to have spent much more of his time than 
hitherto in the island 2 , and thus to have honourably distinguished him- 
self from many of his predecessors. He was a determined supporter 
of Church discipline, as is shown by numerous entries in the ecclesi- 
astical records. One of his earliest actions, in fact, was to commit a 
man " to St. German's prison " for disobeying the warning given in 
court that " no man should irreverently lean or rest on the Corhu- 
nion Table, but those that are called to use the office of ministers s ." 
Some months after this, in the autumn of 1 605, we find him making 
a visitation of the various churches in his diocese. During the next 
few years there is very little to be learned about him from the ecclesi- 
astical records of Man, which are, unfortunately, very imperfect at this 
period ; but it seems probable, as will appear later, that he remained, 
for the most part, in the island, and that he was largely occupied in 
making the translation of the Prayer-book into Manx, which is now 
published for the first time. We know that a portion at least of this 
work must have been done between 1604 and 1 610, as he used the 
English Prayer-book published in the former year, and we shall see 
that his translation was completed in the latter year. There only 
remains on record an account of two convocations held during his 
episcopate. The first of these was in May, 1610, at "the Church of St. 
Peter-in-Holme " (i.e. Peel), at which several wise and useful regulations 
were passed. We append the more important of them : — 

" In primis, that all members in their several churches do diligently cate- 
chise on the Sundays and holy days according to the Book of Common 
Prayer, provided that some part of the Parish come one day and some 
another day, at the appointment of the Minister till he have gone thro 
them all, and so from time to time to hold on that course, and let every 

1 Feb. 10, 1604-5, date of consecration. 

2 Possibly he had resigned some of his other appointments. 

3 All quotations to which no references are given are from the Manx ecclesias- 
tical records.

Minister between the Morning prayer and the high Service question some 
point of the Catechism with the clerk or some other in the Vulgar tongue 
for the better edifying of all degrees. 

" It : That beneficed persons that are not allowed to preach themselves 
take order that certain Sermons be preached within their cure yearly by 
such as be allowed by the ordinary to preach, viz : that Parsons and Vi- 
cars of thirds do provide six sermons at the least by the year and the 
Vicars of pension four sermons. 

"It: That the Minister go not a visitation without the clerk or a deputy 
allowed by the ordinary for the testification of Wills if they be made ; and 
of this let their (sic) be made a publication the next Sabboth (sic) in every 
several Parish by the Minister. 

" It : That there be a register Book kept by every Minister within his 
several charge, of the Christenings, Marriages and Burials and that none 
be churched in houses but in case of necessity and that upon special Li- 
cence from the Ordinary, so that no Minister be present at any private 
contract of youth, never before married unless the Parents Guardians or 
such as have charge over them be present and give consent thereunto. 

" It : Let reparation be carefully made of the Chancel and Church houses 
upon the Glebe lands within two years at the furthest and some prepa- 
ration towards it in the meantime be done. 

" And all the premises to be accomplished upon pain of suspension and 
sequestration according to Law, unless the Ordinary see just cause to give 
further time." 

It should be mentioned that at this time an important Act was passed 
by the Legislature to the effect that " the children of all ecclesiastical 
persons in this Isle begotten in marriage shall be and continue legi- 
timate and inheritable 1 ." This would almost certainly be with the 
bishop's approval. 

In the next month, June, we learn from the following letter to 
the Earl of Salisbury, lord high treasurer, then one of the temporary 
guardians of the island, that the bishop had come into collision with 
the governor on various points : 

" Right honourable my verie good lorde necessytie enfourcing mee (as 
followeth) to bee an humble Complaynante and Petitioner to your good 
Lo'P, thesse are out of soom extremyties, most humbly to shewe to your

" Isle of Man, June the I, 1610." 

[Endorsed.] 

" To the Right honorable, my verie good Lorde, the Earle of Salisburie, 
Lo. highe Treasurer of England, these i° June, 1610. 

" Bishop of Man to my Lord V 

A little later on, the bishop embodied all his grievances in a number 
of articles which are among the ecclesiastical records in "A Book 
containing the Answere of the officers, Deemsters, Viccars Generall, 
and 24 keyes to certain Articles objected by John now Bishop of this 
Isle against John Ireland, Esq. Lievtennante and Captain of the Isle 
of Mann," which is dated "Febr: primo die. 1610-n." The follow- 
ing letter preceded the articles : 

"To the R* Honorable Robert Earle of Salisbury Lord High Treasurer 
of England. 

"The humble petition of the Bishop of the Isle of Man. 

" Shewing to your Hon r That whereas I, with my clergy did this year 
purpose to have perused the Mannish Book of Common Prayer by me 
translated, so with one uniform consent to have made it ready for the 
printing, for the comfort of that poor church, if your Hon r would think 
meet to give allowance thereof: I was lett and hindered from that and 
other religious labours, and in some extremity occasioned to come out of 
that Isle. 

" For that Mr. John Ireland Esq. Lievetennante of that Isle, did use- 
diverse vexations and innovations besides severall indignitys offerred me 
to the prejudice of myself and others, which I am bound in conscience to 
make your Honour acquainted with as well in discharge of my oath to be 
true to that goverment, as also for the preservation of the rights and 
liberties of that poor Church and Bishoprick. 

"All theis (sic) greivances are particularly sett down within this- 
petition." 

The answers of the officers and the House of Keys to many of these 
articles show so clearly the questions at issue between Church and State 
at that time, that we may advantageously take extracts from them as 
well as the articles. The bishop divides his grievances under three 
heads: (1) "Concerning Temporall Rights and Liberties;" (2) "Ec- 
clesiastical! Jurisdiccon ; " (3) " Vncharitable plotting w th Indignity."

Xll BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. 

These he forwarded to the guardians of the island, who referred them 
to the governor for answer ; and he, in justification of himself, called 
together in February, 1610-11, the officers, vicars-general, and Keys, 
to give their evidence with regard to them. Before doing so, they dis- 
cussed the question of the Prayer-book, which, as we have seen, was 
touched upon in the bishop's letter to the Earl of Salisbury: — 

"The two Viccars Generall (S r W m Norres and S r W m Crowe) were 
asked by the Lieutennante whether they saw or knew of the Book of 
Common Prayer said to have been translated into the Manshe speech ; 
they answered that they have seen the Book translated by the new Bishop 
of Sodor into Mannish. And S r W m Norres for his part further an- 
swereth that he could not read the same Book perfectly but here and 
there a word. And S r W m Crowe for his part answereth that having 
the same Book a day or two before he could upon deliberate perusall 
thereof read some part upon it, and doth verily think that few else of the 
clergy can read the same Book for that it is spelled with vowells where- 
with none of them are acquainted. And the said Viccars being further 
asked whether they purposed with the Bishop to peruse the said Book to 
th' entent the same might be made ready for the printing, they replyed say- 
ing they were not therewith acquainted by the Bishop at any time since he 
was Bishop, and therefore did not, nor could not propose any such thing." 

It would seem then that the bishop's Prayer-book was not received 
with favour by his contemporaries, and it is clear that Bishop Barrow 
knew nothing of it, as he wrote, in 1 663, that the Manx people had 
nothing but oral instruction from the clergy. " For there is nothing 
either written or printed in their language, which is peculiar to them- 
selves ; neither can they who speak it best write one to another in it, 
having no character or letter of it among them 1 . Sacheverell in 1702, 
had heard of it, but not favourably, as he wrote, " it is scarce intel- 
ligible to the clergy themselves, who translate it off-hand more to the 
understanding of the people 2 ;" while Bishop Wilson, writing about 
1720, remarked on its being of "no use to the present generation 3 ." 
The present writer, however, fortified by the fact that he has read 
considerable portions of this MS. to Manxmen, by whom it has been, 
for the most part, easily understood, ventures to differ entirely from the 
above-mentioned opinions, though he finds it difficult to explain the 
attitude of Phillips's contemporaries, except, perhaps, on the ground of 
jealousy on account of its being the work of a stranger ; while Sache- 
verell must have acquired his information at secondhand, and it would 
seem probable that Bishop Wilson never perused the MS. The older 
Manx is more phonetic than the modern, and it is a much more 
direct and simple translation, avoiding the periphrases, circumlocutions, 
and many of the corruptions which abound in the latter. The chief" 
divergence, as far as the actual words are concerned, is in the particles, 
which are, of course, very important in fixing its idiomatic character. 

To the question of the turbary, which appears in the bishop's letter,

as well as under his first head, they made no answer, so that it would 
seem probable that the bishop was right in his view. Under the same 
head, he complained that he was compelled " to make four fish- 
ing boates, and to attend the herring fishing 1 about the Isle to 
mine exceeding trouble." In reply to this it was stated that the 
" Bishop having one fishing boate of his own did send the same with 
two other fishing boates hired by him at that time to drive for the her- 
ring fishing but utterly denyd that he made any boate new as formerly 
he hath deposed ; " and the brother-in-law of the bishop, who was exa- 
mined, said that the bishop had received two warrants from the governor 
" commanding him to provide two fishing scoutes vizt one in respect 
he was Bishop, and the other in respect he was Archdeacon, as well 
as two fishing boates." It is difficult to understand the question at issue 
here, for among the spiritual laws we find "that all Bishops shall have their 
Herring Scoute and their fishing Boate, freely and franckly, without any 
Tythes paying wheresoever they land in this Isle 2 ," and it would appear 
from this that having a scoute and a fishing boat free from tithe was a 
privilege; yet the bishop, in 1610, considered the being compelled to 
make two fishing boats a hardship. He also complained of the incon- 
venience of the governor's new market ordinances. The reply to this was 
that the ordinances were jiot new, and that no inconvenience had been 
caused by them. And, finally, under this head, he stated that the 
governor had "appointed a wast or dead rent to be sett upon my 
tennants, whereby I am and shall be hindered of their services and 
carriages, besides other dutys and benefitts due to me." To this no 
answer was vouchsafed. Under the second head we find (1) that the 
governor had "placed a. Layman in the chaplain's place to read ser- 
vice to the garrison in scandalous manner viz* in his doblett and hose, 
and sometime in his livery coat : yea, when a minister or two have 
been present.'' [No answer to this.] (2) That " the Bishop being . . . 
the cheef competent spirituall judge . . . M r Lievtennante will take all 
appeales to himself; and sendeth forth his prohibition." [No answer.] 
(3) That the governor imposed a fine on parish clerks on entering their 
office, " and so to hold them by Lease, whereas the Lawes of that 
Isle appoint they should be elected by the parishioners and admitted 
by the Bishop." In reply to this it was admitted that " there hath been 
a statute that the Parishioners should choose the parish clerk," yet they 
added that " that power doth properly belong to the Lord of the Isle," 
and they quoted recent leases of clerks' glebes to show that they had 
been granted by the Lord. (4) That the governor " prisoned in the 
dungeon and set 5/- fine upon a poor clearke lawfully admitted and . . . 
did put in a clerk of another parish." The governor admitted that he had 
fined- the man, but denied the imprisonment, and " confesseth he did 
impose upon him for that he presumed to serve the Clerkship of Kirk 
Andreas parish by the Bishop's admittance and had no warrant there- 

1 Perhaps, in accordance with the customary law, to pray with the fishermen 
before they set sail. This was, however, usually done by one of the clergy.

XIV BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. 

unto from the Lord of the Isle." (5) That the governor had issued 
licences for eating flesh in Lent, this being the bishop's prerogative. 
To this it was replied that the governor only did so to " sick and weak 
persons" after they had procured the bishop's certificate. (6) He 
" appointeth those he please of the Clergy officers to keep Courts extra- 
ordinarily, and sometimes to sett down rules to dirrect me (that am to 
dirrect them)." Answer, that he "made no spirituall officer . . . but 
desired us (the Viccars Generall) charitablie to rectify two poor widows 
.being strangers and not of abillity to stay for the quarter chapter 
Court ; " also that he " did at no time set down any law but willed 
us ... to declare our knowledge of certain points of the law." (7) He 
prevented the bishop from imposing penance on a garrison soldier, 
" contrary to the old order." To this they replied, " that the punish- 
ing of Sold 13 or any other that receive pay of the Lord, or of any of 
the Lievetennant's family, for criminal causes, doth not by law 
belong to the Bishop or spirituall jurisdiction, for speciall reasons and 
good considerations formerly sett down by the late Bishop Meryck in 
a letter sent by him to Capten Rob* Mollineux then Deputy in this 
Isle which letter hath been shewed and publickly to us read and 
remaineth of record,- and this we say doth agree to the antient laws 
of this Land 1 . And we further say, that to our remembrances there 
was a woman punished in the market place by Hugh Holland then 
archdeacon but it was done by lycense of M r Sherburn then Capten." 
(8) " Our bookes of spirituall statutes which should be for our dirrec- 
tion he hath called in and taken from us, so as it seemeth we are 
debarred from all judiciall proceedings in the Ecclesiasticall Court" 
Answer by the vicars-general, that they had delivered the books up 
because they " ought to be kept of record in the Lord's rolles ; " but 
that they " received a coppy," ami so " were not debarred of any 
Judiciall proceedings." (9) " One of our best lawes, viz*, the oath for 
swearing on the grave ... he hath abrogated." This law had just 
been repealed by the House of Keys, because, according to the vicars- 
general, it " was unfitting and caused much wrong to poor orphanes 
and simplest of ffriends 2 ." (10) Abolition of the slate token 3 . [No 
answer.] Under the third heading, (1) " He placed and displaced the 
24 keyes at his pleasure." Answer, " the Lievetennante hath used no 
other course and manner in choseing of the 24 keyes than as ever in 



1 This same question was still in dispute between Church and State more than 
100 years later, in Bishop Wilson's time. 

' It appeared, however, among the spiritual laws written down in 1665 as fol- 
lows : " He that enters his claim within the year and a day after the probate of the 
will .... without bill bond or evidence, shall prove the same upon the grave of 
him or her from whom the debt was due, with lawful compurgators according to the 
antient form ; that is to say, lying on his back with the Bible on his breast, and his 
compurgators on either side one." This custom was approved by Bishop Wilson, 
and was not discontinued till the middle of the eighteenth century. 

8 These were bits of slate with the governor's or deemster's initials scratched 
on them, which then served as warrants. In spite of Governor Ireland's decree, 
they were used till the *' Revestment " (1765), as the resumption of the possession 
of Man by the English Crown is called.

former times to our remembrances hath been accustomed." (2) " He 
frowned upon, and wrought displeasure to any that conversed with me ; 
or took my tythes at my hand, insomuch that many told me they 
forbare my house and company for fear of him." [No answer.] (3) 
The bishop seems to have objected to take the new oath imposed in 
1 608, when the Earl of Salisbury became temporary guardian of the 
Isle, unless " he might be suffered to put an addition thereto for 
reservation of his former oaths." From the copies of the two oaths 
appended we are inclined to agree with the officers, &c, that the new 
oath " was no otherwise than by good reason he ought to take : " 

1608. " The Coppie of the oath by the Bishop alreadie taken. 

" My alleigeaunce to the king's Majestie of England, and my former oathes

Governor Ireland would seem from this to have been imbued with 
the puritan tendencies of the time. [No answer is given to this 
allegation.] (5) The bishop claimed to be a member of the Council, 
and that he should "take account" of the officers "upon oath for the 
Lord's use." In the answer, the first claim is admitted, but the 
second is declared not to have been legal "since the dissolucon of 
the Abbey," as "the Bishop cannot claime that power to himself 
only, without the Abbot and Audittors." (6) " He hath laid greevous

the end of their reply, the officers, &c, refer to a letter of the bishop's, 
which is not among the Records, in which he "certified against the 
Lievtennante that he violently forbidden (sic) persons summoned to 
appear to the Ecclesiast" Court since his coming to the Countree at 
his last return, and did forbid them to obey the justice of the 
Ecclesiasticall Government; we the Viccars Generall do protest and 
averr that the Lievtennant did no such matter." It is nowhere 
stated what the end of this controversy was, but it seems clear that 
the bishop prevailed, as in the following year Governor Ireland was 
withdrawn ; indeed the position had become so intolerable that either 
he or the bishop must have gone, and, as we shall see, the bishop's 
contentions prevailed in all the more important matters under dispute. 
For he continued in possession of his turbary. The appeals from 
the bishop's decision in the ecclesiastical court were practically 
disallowed. Parish clerks were elected by the parishioners with the 
bishop's sanction. Ecclesiastical officers, except the sumner-general, 
about whom there was occasionally a dispute, as in 1612 and in 
1727, were appointed by him alone. Swearing on the grave, in 
spite of the statute of 16 10, was still in vogue in Bishop Wilson's 
time ', and the bishop is, without dispute, a member of the Council 
to this day. The question of the ecclesiastical jurisdiction over 
the garrison soldiers was left in abeyance. If the governor was 
complaisant, there was no difficulty about it ; if otherwise, there 
were disputes. So we see that the bishop triumphed, though the 
Keys and, curiously enough, his vicars-general, seem to have been op- 
posed to him. This shows how much stronger was the position of the 
Church in Man in his day than in the following century, when Bishop 
Wilson, though having the vicars-general and Keys with him, instead 
of against him, was ultimately defeated by the civil power. The 
reality of the ecclesiastical power was shown in the following year 
by no less a person than the Captain of castle Rushen being sent 
to St. German's prison for "marrying without asking Banes (sic) 
or Licence from the Ordinary." And it was doubtless through the 
influence of the bishop that the observation of Sunday was more 
strictly enforced. For, by the statute of 16 10, which regulated the 
herring fishery, no one " was admitted to fish from Saturday morning 
till Sunday at night, after sunset, upon pain of forfeiture of his boat 
and netts 2 ." In 161 2 the dispute about the appointment of sumner- 
general, already referred to, took place, and two vicars were fined and 
imprisoned because they " refused to accept of and publish a precept 
sent from the Capten signifying the pleasure of the Countesse of 
Derby concerning the Sumners office, and also uttered other speeches 
tending to impeach the power of the s* Countesse therein alledging it 
to belong to the Lord Bishop onelie." In this case the bishop had 
to give way and the countess's nominee was appointed; but at a 
later period, till 1727, we find the bishop appointing this ecclesiastical 
officer without any protest. 

1 See note 2, p. xiv. - Isle of Man Statutes, vol. i, p. 75. 



BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. Xvii 

It would seem also, from a case in 1613, that the Church's 
jurisdiction was, temporarily at least, permitted over the garrison 
soldiers, for one of them sent an "humble and unfeigned petition" 
asking to be permitted to perform the penance which he had been 
condemned to undergo but had previously evaded. In 161 4, there 
was an appeal to the civil power by an individual who was 
"aggreived that he hath been suspended, excommunicated and so 
continueth;" but the Keys, though they decided that the vicars-general 
had committed certain "mistakings and errors," did not venture to 
reverse their decision. During the next two years there is no trace of 
the bishop's proceedings in the Records; but, in 16 17, we find that he 
took the strong step of excommunicating Edward Fletcher, Vicar of 
the parish of Braddan, " for his clandestine marriage, and decreed a 
Denunciation to be published in the Parish Church; and further 
censured him according to law in that case untill that he shall satisfy 
the Church and congregation for his irregularity." 

At the end of the same year, the following strongly worded 
regulation was passed at a convocation held by Bishop Phillips ; i.e. 
"that no manner of person shall traduce or obloquie or call in 
question any churchwarden or sworn man for any presentment they 
present or set down upon their oathes, upon payne of the Churches 
censure in the highest degree." The Church's officials were, in fact, to 
be considered infallible ! 

For a still longer period after this there is no mention of the 
bishop, and when a record does occur, i.e. in 1626, it is with reference 
to arrangements during his absence from the island. He then 
appointed substitutes for the spiritual affairs of his see during his 
absence, as follows : — 

" In the name of God. Amen, &c. 

" In a. respective (sic) due regard of the good pleasure of the Right 
Honourable nobles of the House of Derby, the Lords and Owners of this 
Isle of Man with the Regaltie thereof we John Phillips (by the providence 
of God Bishop of the same) having for a time urgent occasione to be ab-

From the following entry in the Liber Scaccarii in 1627, it would 
seem that a difficulty about the appeal from the ecclesiastical to the 
civil jurisdiction had again arisen. The governor (Fletcher) here 
stated the law, having doubtless had the deemsters' advice, as he 
conceived it to be, and his view was upheld by the vicar-general and the 
official, who, as we have seen, were the spiritual rulers in the bishop's 
absence. His statement was as follows : — 

"By the ancient and accustomary laws of this Isle, any Inhabittor 
finding himself agrieved by any censure or proceeding held ag* him in 
the Spiritual Court, may, upon ye same appeale unto the Lord his staff of 
Goverm* here, and further, as occasion shall be offered, unto the Lord 
himself, for this is a prerogative. Upon w ch appeale exhibited, the Staff 
of governm' may prohibitt the spirituall officers for any further proceed- 
ings or intermeddleing therew" 1 untill an indifferent tryall may be had 
concerning the same, so the same be done within a convenient time 
without predjudice to any party. But and if the Lord of the soyle please, 
upon any complaint of appeale or petition, to grant any tryall in law to 
be made by his prime officers, and twenty four keys ag* any form r 
proceedings or censure by the Spirituality proceeded in, altho' they have 
proceeded both in suspencon and excommunication, which is the furthest 
point of ye law that they can proceed in, but only deliver both the party 
and cause to the Lord ; then we say, it is the Lord's prerogative royall, 
upon the right of his warrant or refferrence sent over to his Temporall 
officers for tryall, that the spirituality do not only surcease, but also 
absolve, and in law dispense with the party, whereby he may be capable 
of law, and at liberty to plead for himself; and this we say is the Lord's 
prerogative, as before, in respect y e party, in that danger running, is 
only at the Lord's mercy for his body and goods upon tryall, which the 
Lord at his pleasure may give or take the same without the controulm* 
of any, for the spirituality hath no further power over the party or his 
cause, but as before. 

"M r Norris, and M r Crow. If these propositions above written be 
law, and the Lord's prerogative royall, then I require you, in the Lord's 
name, as you are sworn, to subscribe your names thereunto, resting

But this ruling was reversed, and, in the following year, a decision 
was given in the bishop's favour by the following order from Lord 
Strange 2 , who had just taken over the government of the Island on 
behalf of his father Earl William, and at once superseded Fletcher s in 
his post as governor : 

"Whereas by the auncient Lawes and Customes of the Island the 
Lord Bishop hath ever had power, and authoritie to heare, order, 
and determine, all ecclesiastical causes (soe y* the same depend not 
before him, aboue one yeare, and a day) and to punish all such offenders 
whatsoever as shall comitt any misdemeanours within or belonging to 
the Jurisdiction of the Spirituall Courte : Yet nevertheless I am informed 
by the now Lo : Bpp that you my officers (in repugnancy of his 
authoritie, and to the overthrowe of the Governm* incident and proper 
only to his place and ffunction) doe frequently restore psons excom- 
municated by him, and doe further take upon you ye hearinge and 
disposition of eccl: causes at yo r pleasure not belonging unto you, 
whereby you doe not only derrogate from the hono r of his place, in 
trenching so farre upon Church govemm*, but alsoe hindere mee, 
and give incouragem* to offenders to neglect his authority : In con- 
sideration whereof, and to the end that offenders may be suppressed 
and duly punished, the auncient eccl gov' established and religion ye 
more advanced ; it is my pleasure and express command that you, 
and every of you henceforth surceass to intermeddle in anie matter 
or cause belonginge to the Spirituall Governm* (other than with such 
as by ye Lawes, and customes of ye Island may be Lawfull for you), 
And y' you suffer him and his servants quietly to pass to and from 
y a Island as occasion shall require and for ye better incouragement of 
ye said Lo: Bishop in the full and free execution of his place, and 
that publick scandall and dangerous example may be avoyded, and that 
good respect and due obedience may be given him by all, as befitts them 
to give to one of his callinge, and that these my directions may be the 
better observed, Let these my lett™ be kept upon record, for that I 
have seen several letters which to this purpoase formerly sent unto 
you (as it seems) are either sleighted or forgotten And soe I bidd you 
farwell from my Mannor House of Knowsley the twoe and twenteith 
day of July 1628.

Man, my Receiv r , Deemsters, Comptroll r , Waterbayliff, and the rest of

1 This view was afterwards controverted by Bishop Wilson. 

2 Lord Strange, afterwards the famous seventh Earl of Derby, was a strong 
supporter of Church government in days when the opposition to it was rapidly 
increasing. 

3 It is possible that his opposition to the bishop may have originated in revenge 
for his having excommunicated his relative, the Vicar of Braddan.

XX BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. 

The last document in connection with Bishop Phillips is in the 
archidiaconal archives, and consists of a letter, dated 1629, from him 
to his clergy, relating mainly to the conduct of the ecclesiastical 
courts, to registration of wills, to the necessity of enforcing present- 
ments, and of seeing that marriages were not celebrated without 
licences having been granted. It will be seen from it that the bishop 
was as earnest in the cause of Church discipline at the end as at the 
beginning of his episcopate. 

" Religious Brethren. Salutem in Jesu Chro : &c.

BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. XXI 

Bishop Phillips died on the 7th of August, 1633, at Bishop's Court, 
and was buried in St. German's Cathedral. 

We have no record of the state of the diocese during his episco- 
pate, but from some brief notes of his predecessor, Meryck, and some 
extracts from two reports made just after his death, we may gain some 
idea of what it was. Bishop Meryck says that the episcopal income 
" scarcely ever exceeded £ 100," and that out of this he " should have 
assigned some portion towards the repair of the buildings, and 
something also to him who presides over the law courts (as never 
a penny is paid by the people to the judge or the functionaries) the 
remainder * * * is thought there sufficiently magnificent in relation 
to the other revenues of the island 1 ." The people "are extremely 
religious, and most readily conform, without a single exception, to the 
formularies of the church of England 1 ." The following particulars are 
extracted from a State Paper 2 endorsed by Archbishop Laud, said to 
have been written by Sir Hugh Cannell, vicar of Michael: The 
diocese consists of a bishop, archdeacon, and seventeen priests. 
The bishop and archdeacon exercise jurisdiction alternately every 
six months 3 . The value of the bishopric is £140, and of the 
archdeaconry with the rectory of Andreas £60. All the clergy 
except two or three are illiterate men, brought up in the island in 
secular professions 4 - The service is that of the Church of England, 
in some places read in English, in others in Manx. Nine or ten 
parishes are worth £4 (?), one or two £40, and the rest £20. There is 
neither dean nor cathedral 8 . In 1636, when Archbishop Neile, of 
York, was making inquiry into the state of his province, Bishop 
Parr reported of Sodor and Man, that the " extreme coldness of the 
country 6 " and his " ruinous house " constrained him " to retire to 
England for the winter season ; " that " most of the ministers were of 
no better ability than to read distinctly divine service;" and that "the 
island was destitute of means of learned education." He also 
informed the archbishop that he had warned the ministers to be 
diligent in catechising, and that " because many of them could not 
preach" he introduced the Book of Homilies. The most startling 
part of his report, however, is to the effect that on " St. John Baptist's 
day 7 "he found "the people in a chapel dedicated to that Saint in the 



1 Manx Society, vol. iv, p. 98. 

2 State Papers, cclxv. 45, p. 47, April 10, 1634 (in ecclesiastical records). 

3 This must not be taken to mean that the archdeacon conld perform all the 
functions of a bishop. He held courts in which, except for certain reserved episco- 
pal causes, he had the same jurisdiction as the bishop. 

4 Chaloner, however, writing twenty-five years later, remarks of the clergy : " It 
is marvaillous to hear what good Preachers they be." (Manx Society, vol. x, 

P- 18.) 

5 This must mean that the cathedral was not used, for it was certainly in ex- 
istence. 

6 This statement would not pass muster in these days of greater knowledge of 
climatic conditions.

XXli BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF BISHOP PHILLIPS. 

practice of gross superstitions,'' which he caused to be "cried 
down," and in place of them "appointed Divine service and sermons. 
We have no precisely contemporary account of Bishop Phillips, but 
Chaloner, who wrote twenty-five years after his death, and must have 
been acquainted with those who knew him, speaks of him as a 
" singularly Learned, Hospitable, Painful and Pious Prelate * * * who 
out of zeal, to the propagating of the Gospel, attained the knowledge " 
of Manx " so exactly, that he did ordinarily preach in it 1 ." Sacheverell, 
writing in 1 702, and probably taking his information from Chaloner, 
says that Phillips was " famous in his generation for his great pains in 
preaching, his charity, and hospitality, even to the meanest of the 
people 2 ; " and Wood 3 remarks that he " was famous for his charity and 
hospitality." Chaloner is also responsible for the statement that he 
translated the Bible as well as the Prayer-book, saying that he 
" undertook that most laborious, most difficult but useful Work, of the 
Translation of the Bible into Manks ; taking to his assistance some of 
the Islanders ; as namely, Sir Hugh Cavoll (Cannell), Minister of the 
Gospel and now Vicar of Kirk Michael, perfected the said Work 
in the space of twenty and nine years 1 ." Sacheverell mentions this 
statement of Chaloner's, and remarks that his Bible is "now not 
extant 2 ." Cox, writing in 1720, but merely copying his predeces- 
sors, says that he translated " the liturgy and Bible into the Manks 
language 4 ;" and Bishop Wilson writes about the same time that 
" It has been often said that the Holy Bible was by Bishop Phillips's 
care translated into the Manks language ; but upon the best enquiry 
that can be made, there was no more attempted by him than a 
translation of the Common Prayer 5 ." His evidence, combined with 
the fact that there is no mention of this Bible in contemporary 
records, would seem to show that no such translation had been made. 
To form a just estimate of Bishop Phillips from the scanty material 
we have been able to accumulate is scarcely possible. But it is 
at least clear that he was a strong and zealous upholder of the Church 
and her rights, and that, considering his other appointments, he 
bestowed considerable attention upon his diocese. The mere fact of 
his having mastered the Manx language, and of his having translated 
the Prayer-book into that language, shows that the welfare of his 
Manx flock was dear to him. In fact, in every aspect in which 
we are able to view him, he stands conspicuously superior to most 
of his successors as well as his predecessors, and would seem worthy 
of a reputation not much inferior to Wilson, Barrow, and Hildesley, 
and the less known, but probably equally estimable bishops, Simon, 
Mark and Donkan.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MS. 

Bishop Phillips's original MS. was, as we have seen, completed in 
1610. The only copy of it now in existence, which is in the possession 
of the Rev. Hugh Gill, Vicar of Malew, seems to have been written be- 
tween 1625 and 1630, as there is a prayer in the Litany for Charles I. 
and his Queen, but not for their son, afterwards Charles II., who was 
born in the latter year. The early portion of this MS., as far as the 
beginning of the Athanasian Creed, is missing; but, excepting that 
three or four pages are torn out, the remainder, to the 9th verse of the 
1 44th Psalm, is in a good state of preservation. All its rubrics are in 
Manx, not in English, as in the modern version. 

This copy seems to be written throughout in the same hand, though 
the size of the handwriting becomes smaller after the end of the 
Litany, and the portion between the Epistles and Gospels and the 
Psalms is so small that it is sometimes difficult to decipher. Other 
difficulties have arisen from the writing having faded in parts, and 
from the book having been so badly bound that some of the words 
on the inner margin are hidden. The spelling of the MS., as usual 
in those days, is very careless, the same word being spelled in half- 
a-dozen different ways. The more flagrant of these variations have 
been indicated by (sic); but they are so numerous that it has not 
been thought desirable to do so in all cases. Capital and small letters 
are used quite indifferently, so that the absence of the former where 
they would seem to be required must be placed to the account of the 
original copyist. The stops are equally uncertain, but, in some 
cases, their absence must be ascribed to the fading of the ink. The 
accents and marks of abbreviation are very puzzling, as they appear to 
have been occasionally put in quite at random. With regard to the 
accent A , for instance, it was found that, though it frequently appeared 
to be placed almost entirely over one letter, it was really mtended to 
be over two ; and that the mark of abbreviation of nn (i.e. n) was often 
placed over the vowel, as ren instead of ren, and occasionally between, 
as reh. In cases like these, where there is no doubt of the intention 
of the copyist, the accents and marks have been placed as indicated ; 
but, in all other cases, my endeavour has been to copy the MS. faith- 
fully, whether it is correct or not, in all respects, merely showing the 
blunders, when they are serious, by a footnote. The text, of which the 
MS. is the translation, is, except in one or two places which are duly 
noted, that of the English Prayer-book of 1604. In addition to ap- 
pendix (a), which contains the errata made by the transcriber, the fol- 
lowing appendices are given, in the belief that they will not only be of

use in illustrating the text but in indicating the gradual change in the 
language : (b) Alternative readings in the same handwriting as the text, 
which are compared with the corresponding word both in the text and 
in the modem version, (c) Alterations in handwritings of later date 
than that of the text, in cases where they have not obliterated the text. 
For in cases where the text has been obliterated, the more recent ver- 
sion has been inserted in the text with a footnote indicating that it 
is so. (d) Probable errors in the MS., not indicated in footnotes *- 

The translations of the prayers in the litany, of the collects, and 
of the rubrics, whenever they vary from the modern version, have 
been copied by me from Liturgies Britannica, by W. Veeling, B.D., 
London, 1851, kindly lent by Sir James Gell; and the translations 
of the epistles and gospels have been copied from a prayer-book 
in the Bodleian Library. 

With reference to the modern version, which forms the parallel text, 
it has been taken from the Manx Prayer-book of 1842, which was 
copied from the first printed Prayer-book of 1765 with some slight 
alterations. It will be found on comparison that there are no in- 
considerable number of errors in this text, which have been corrected 
with the assistance of Professor Rhys and Mr. W. J. Cain. 

In conclusion, I wish to express my obligations to Professor Rhys 
for the immense pains he has taken in revising the proofs with me, 
whereby he has saved me from many errors into which I should other- 
wise have fallen.

with the plague of pestilence lx and ten thousand, and yet remembering thy mercy 
didst save the rest : have pity upon us miserable sinners, that now are visited with 
great sickness and mortality, that like as thou didst then command thy angel to 
cease from punishing, so it may now please thee to withdraw from us this plague 
and grievous sickness, through Jesu Christ our Lord.

»Sio. 

a This Prayer is peculiar to Bp. Phillips' Boole. It resembles the prayer after "Let 
our cry come unto thee " in the Visitation of the Sick. [See translation below\ 

"O Lord, look down from heaven, behold, look, and restore all thy servants: 
look upon them with the eyes of thy mercy, give them comfort and sure confidence 
in thee, deliver him * from the fear of the enemy, and keep him * in peace and 
safety for ever, both bodily and spiritually also, to thy glory, and to the comfort 
of one with another of them and us ; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." 
w * Bishop Phillips, who in the first part of the prayer introduces the plural, instead of the 
singular number as in the ** Visitation of the Sick," here resorts to the singular. The words 
after " peace and safety" are not found in any Prayer Boole, and would therefore seem to 
have been added by Bishop Phillips.

Lawe. This also wee know the season, how that it is time that wee should now 
awake out of sleepe : for now is our saluatiou neerer then when wee beleeued. The 
night is passed, the day is come nigh : let vs therefore cast away the deeds of 
darknesse, and let vs put on the armour of light. Let vs walke honestly as it were 
in the day light; not in eating and drinking, neither in chambering and wanton-

make no prouision for the flesh, to fulfill the lustes.of it,

may with one mouth prayse God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore 
receiue ye one another, as Christ receiued vs, to the praise of God. And this I 
say, that Jesus Christ was a minister of the Circumcision for the trueth of' God, 
to confinne the promises made vnto the fathers, and that the Gentiles might praise 
God for his mercie, as it is written, For this cause I will praise thee among the 
Gentiles, and sing vnto thy Name. And againe he saith, Reioyce yee Gentiles 
with his people. And againe, Prayse the Lord all ye Gentiles, and laud him 
all ye nations together. And againe Esai saith, There shall be the roote of 
Jesse, and he that shall rise to reigne over the Gentiles, in him shall the Gentiles 
trust The God of hope fill you with all ioy and peace in beleeuing, that ye may

Sea and the waters shall roare, and mens hearts shall faile them for fea're, and 
for looking after those things which shall come on the earth : for the powers of 
heauen shall moue. And then shall they see the Sonne of man come in a clonde 
with power and great glory. When these things begin to come to passe, then 
looke vp, and lift vp yonr heads, for your redemption draweth nigh. And hee 
shewed them a similitude : Beholde the 6gge tree, and all other trees, when they 
shoote foorth their bnddes, yee see and know of your owne seines that Summer is 
then nigh at hand. So likewise yee also (when yee see these things come to 
passe) bee sure that the kingdome of God is nigh. Uerily I say vnto yon this 
generation shall not passe, till all be fulfilled. Heauen and earth shal passe' but

which will lighten things that are hid in darkenesse, and open the counsailes of the 
hearts, and then shall euery man haue praise of God. 

The Gospel. Mat u. 2. 

WHen John, being in prison, heard the works of Christ, he sent two of 
his disciples, and sayd vnto him, Art thou he that shall come, or doe 
we looke for another 1 Jesus answered, and sayd vnto them, Goe and shew John 
againe what yee haue heard and seene. The blinde receine their sight, the lame 
walk, the lepers are clensed, & the deafe heare, the dead are raised vp, and the 
poore receiue the glad tidings of the Gospel : and happie is he that is not offended 
by me. And as they departed, Jesus began to say vnto the people concerning 
John, What went ye out into the wildemesse to see? A reed that is shaken 
with the wind? Or what went ye out to seel A man clothed in soft raiment?

Lord, raise up, we pray thee, thy power, and come among us, and with great 
might succour us, that whereas through our sins and wickedness we be sore let 
and hindered, thy bountiful grace and mercy, (through the satisfaction of thy Son 
our Loid), may speedily deliver us ; to whom with thee and the Holy Ghost be 
honour and glory world without end. 



Behold, they that weare soft clothing are in Kings houses. But what went ye

For this is he of whome it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy

not, and said plainly, I am not Christ And they asked him, What art thou 
then ? Art thou Elias ? And he said, I am not. Art thou the Prophet ? And hee 
answered, No. Then saide they vnto him, What art thou, that we may giue an 
answere vnto them that sent vs % What sayest thou of thy selfe ? He said, I am 
the voice of a cryer in the wildernesse, Make streight the way of the Lorde, as 
sayd the Prophet Esai. And they which were sent, were of the Pharisees, and 
they asked him and said vnto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou bee not 
Christ, nor Elias, neither that Prophet? John answered them, saying, I baptize

IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and GOD was 
the Word. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made 
by it, and without it was made nothing that was made. In it was life, and the 
life was the light of men, and the light shineth in the darkenes, & the darknesse 
comprehended it not. There was sent fro God a man, whose name was John : 
the same came as a witnesse to beare witnesse of the light, that all men through

saw him s hee said vnto Jesus, Lord, what shall he here do ? Jesus sayd vnto him, 
If I wil haue him to tary til I come, what is that to thee ? Folow thou me. Then 
went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die : 
yet Jesus said not to him, He shal not die : but, If I wil that he tary till I come, 
what is that to thee? The same disciple is he which testifieth of these things, 
and wrote these things, and we know that his testimonie is true. There are 
also many other things, which Jesus did, the which if they should bee written 
euery one, I suppose the world could not containe the bookes that should be

The Epistle. Apo. 14. 1. 

I Looked, and loe, a lambe stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred 
and forty foure thousand, hauing his name and his fathers name written in their 
foreheads. And I heard a voice from heauen, as the sound of many waters, and 
as the voice of a great thunder. And I heard the voice of harpers, harping with 
their harpes. And they sung as it were a new song before the seate, and before 
the foure beasts and elders, and no man could learne the song, but the hundred and 
forty foure thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. These are they 
which were not denied with women, for they are virgins. These follow the lambe

THe Angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a sleepe, saying, Arise, and 
take the childe and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there till I

destroy him. So when he awoke, he tooke the child and his mother by night, 
and departed into Egypt, and was there vnto the death of Herod, that it might 
bee fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the Prophet, saying, Out of Egypt 
haue I called my sonne. Then Herod, when hee saw that he was mocked of the 
wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth men of warre, and slew all the

the generations from Abraham to Dauid, are xiiii. generations. And from Dauid 
vnto the captinitie of Babylon, are xiiii. generations. And from the captiuitie of 
Babylon vnto Christ, are xiiii. generations. 

The birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise : When his mother Mary was married 
to Joseph, (before they came to dwell together) she was found with child by the 
holy Ghost. Then Joseph her husband, because he was a righteous man, and 
would not put her to shame, was minded priuily to depart from her. But while 
he thus thought, behold, the Angel of the Lorde appeared vnto him in sleepe, 
saying, Joseph thou sonne of Dauid, feare not to take vnto thee Mary thy wife : 
for that which is conceiued in her, commeth of the holy Ghost. Shee shall bring 
forth a sonne, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall saue his people 
from their sinnes. 

All this was done, that it might bee fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by 
the Prophet, saying, Behold a mayde shall be with childe, and shall bring foorth a

which he had yet being vncircumcised, that hee should be the father of all them 
that beleene, though they bee not circumcised, that righteousnesse might be imputed 
to them also, and that he might bee the father of circumcision, not vnto them 
onely which came of the circumcised, but vnto them also that walke in the steps 
of the faith that was in our father Abraham before the time of circumcision. For 
the promise (that hee should bee heire of the world) happened not to Abraham, 
or to his seed through the Lawe, but through the righteousnesse of faith. For 
if they which are of the Law, be heires, then is faith, but vaine, and the promise 
of none effect. 

The Gospel. Luk. 2. 15. 

Nd it fortuned, assoone as the Angels were gone away from the shepheards 
into heauen, they sayd one to another, Let vs go euen now vnto Bethlehem,

munion, which was used upon the day of Circumcision. 



and see this thing that wee heare say is happened, which the Lord hath shewed 
vnto vs. And they came with haste, and found Marie and Joseph, and the babe 
layd in a manger. And when they had seene it, they published abroad the saying 
that was tolde them of that childe. And all they that heard it, wondered at 
those things which were tolde them of the shepheards. But Marie kept all these 
sayings, and pondred them in her heart. And the shepheards returned praising 
and lauding God for all the things, that they had heard and seene, euen as it was 
told vnto them. And when the eight day was come, that the childe should bee 
circumcised, his name was called Jesus, which was named of the Angel before 
iiee was concerned in the wombe.

iourney, and sought him among their kinsfolke and acquaintance : and when 
they found him not, they went backe againe to Hierusalem, and sought him. 
And it fortuned, that after three dayes they found him in the temple, sitting in 
the middest of the doctors, hearing them, and posing them. And all that' heard 
him, were astonied at his vnderstanding and answeres. And when they saw him, 
they marueiled. And his mother sayd vnto him, Sonne, why hast thou thus dealt 
with vs ? behold, thy father and I haue sought thee sorrowing. And he sayd vnto 
them, How happened it that ye sought me I Wist yee not that I must goe about 
my fathers businesse ? And they vnderstood not that saying which hee spake vnto 
them. And he went downe with them, & came to Nazareth, and was obedient 
vnto them. But his mother kept all these sayings together in her heart. And 
Jesus prospered in wisedome and age, and in fauour with God and men.

the mariage. And when y° wine failed, the mother of Jesus said vnto him, 
They haue no wine. Jesus said vnto her, Woman, what haue I to doe with thee ?

PErceiue yee not how that they which runne in a course, runne all, but one 
receiueth the reward? So runne that yee may obtaine. Euery man that 
proueth masteries, abstaineth from all things : and they doe it to obtaine a crowne 
that shall perish, but wee to obtaine an euerlasting Crowne. I therefore so runne, 
not as at an vncertaine thing : so fight I, not as one that beateth the aire : but I 
tame my body, and bring it into subiection, lest by any meanes it come to passe, 
that when I haue preached to other, I my selfe should be cast away.

went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his Uineyard. And

against the goodman of the house, saying, These last haue wrought but one 
houre, and thou hast made them equall with vs, which haue borne the burden and 
heate of the day. But hee answered vnto one of them, and said, Friend, I doe 
thee no wrong: Diddest thou not agree with mee for a peny? Take that thine 
is, and goe thy way : I will giue vnto this last, euen as vnto thee. Is it not

The Epistle. 2. Cor. xi. 19. 

YE suffer fooles gladly, seeing your selues are wise. For ye suffer, if a man 
bring you into bondage, if a man deuoure, if a man take, if a man exalt 
himselfe, if a man smite you on the face. I speake as concerning rebuke, as 
though we had bene weake in this behalfe. Howbeit whereinsoeuer any man 
dare be bolde (I speake foolishly) I dare be bold also. They are Hebrewes, 
euen so am I. They are Israelites, euen so am I. They are the seed of Abraham, 
euen so am I. They are the ministers of Christ, (I speake as a foole) I am more. 
In labours more abundant, in stripes aboue measure, in prison more plenteously, 
in death oft. Of the Jewes fine times receiued I forty stripes saue one. Thrise 
was I beaten with rods, I was once stoned, I suffred thrise shipwracke, night and 
day haue I bene in the deepe sea.. In iourneying often, in perils of waters, in

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poore, and though I gane my body 
euen that I burned, and yet haue no loue, it profiteth me nothing. Loue suffereth long, 
and is courteous, loue enuieth not, loue doeth not frowardly, swelleth not, dealeth 
not dishonestly, seeketh not her owne, is not prouoked to anger, thinketh none euill, 
reioyceth not in iniquitie : but reioyceth in the trueth, suffereth all things, beleeueth 
all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Though that prophecying faile, 
either tongues cease, or knowledge vanish away, yet loue falleth neuer away. For 
our knowledge is vnperfect, and our prophecying is vnperfect : But when that which 
is perfect is come, then that which is vnperfect shall bee done away. When I was 
a childe, I spake as a childe, I vnderstood as a childe, I imagined as a childe : But 
assoone as I was a man, I put away childishnes. Now we see in a glasse, euen 
in a darke speaking : but then shall wee see face to face. Now I know vnperfectly :

The Gospel. Luke 18. 31. 

IEsus tooke vnto him the twelue, and said vnto them, Beholde, we goe vp to 
Hierusalem, and all shal bee fulfilled which are written by the Prophets of the 
Sonne of man. For he shalbe deliuered vnto the Gentiles, and shalbe mocked, 
and despitefully intreated, and spitted on. And when they haue scourged him, 
they will put him to death, and the thirde day hee shall rise againe. And they 
vnderstood none of these things. And this saying was hid from them, so that 
they perceiued not the things which were spoken. And it came to pasie, that as 
hee' was come nigh to Iericho, a certaine blinde man sate by the high way side, 
And when hee heard the people passe by, he asked what it meant.

And they said vnto him, that Jesus of Nazareth passed by. And he cried, saying, 
Jesu thou Sonne of Dauid, hane mercie on mee. And they which went before, 
rebuked him, that hee should holde his peace. But hee cried so much the more, 
Thou Sonne of Dauid, haue mercie on me. And Jesus stood still, and commanded 
him to bee brought vnto him. And when hee was come neere, he asked him, saying, 
What wilt thou that I doe vnto thee ? And he said, Lord, that I might receiue my 
sight. And Jesus said wito him, Receiue thy sight, thy faith hath saued thee, 
And immediatly hee receiued his sight, and followed him, praising God. And 
all the people when they saw it, gaue praise vnto God.

rent your hearts, and not your clothes. Turne you vnto the Lord your God, 
for he is gracious and mercifull, long suffering, and of great compassion, and ready to 
pardon wickednes. Then (no doubt) hee also shall turne and forgiue : and after 
his chastening, hee shall let your increase remaine for meate and drinke offerings 
vnto the Lord your God. Blow out with the trumpet in Sion, proclaime a fasting 
call the Congregation, and gather the people together : warne the Congregation' 
gather the Elders, bring the children and sucklings together. Let the bridegrome 
goe foorth of his chamber [and the bride out of her closet ']. Let the Priests serue

Lord, be fauourable vnto thy people, let not thine heritage bee brought to such 
confusion, lest the heathen be lords thereof. Wherefore should they say among the 
heathen, Where is now their God ? 

The Gospel. Matth. 6. 16. 

WHen ye fast, be not sad, as the hypocrites are : For they disfigure their faces, 
that it may appeare vnto men how that they fast. Uerily I say vnto you, 
they haue their reward. But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash 
thy face, that it appeare not vnto men how that thou fastest, but vnto thy Father 
whieh is in secret, and thy Father which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly. 
Lay not vp for your seines treasure vpon earth, where the rust and moth doeth cor- 
rupt, and where theeues breake through and steale : But lay vp for you treasures 
in heauen, where neither rust nor moth doeth corrupt, and where theeues doe not 
breake through nor steale. For where your treasure is, there will your hearts be also.

no fault : but in all things let vs behaue our seines as the Ministers of God in

abstaine from fornication, and that euery one of yoifthould know how to keepe his 
vessel in holinesse and honour, and not in the lust of concupiscence, as do the hea- 
then, which know not God : that no man oppresse and defraude his brother in bar-

God. Let no man deceiue you with vaine wordes : For because of such things, 
commeth the wrath of God vpon the children of disobedience. Bee ye not there- 
fore companions of them. Yee were sometimes darkenes, but now are yee light in 
the Lord : walke as children of light : for the fruit of the spirit consisteth in al 
goodnes, and righteousnes, and trueth. Accept that which is pleasing vnto the 
Lord, and haue no fellowship with the vnfruitfull workes of darknes, but rather 
rebuke them. For it is a shame euen to name those things which are done of 
them in secret : but all things when they are brought foorth by the light, are mani- 
fest. For whatsoeuer is manifest, the same is light. Wherefore hee saith, Awake 
thou that sleepest, and stand vp from death, and Christ shall giue thee light.

When the vncleane spirit is gone out of a man, hee walketh thorow dry places, 
seeking rest : and when he findeth none, he saith, I will retnme againe into my 
house whence I came out. And when hee commeth, hee findeth it swept and gar-

and they enter in, and dwell there : and the ende of that man is worse then the be-

The Epistle. Gal. 4. 21. 

TEH me (ye that desire to be vnder the Law) doe yee not heare of the Law ? 
for it is written, that Abraham had two sonnes : the one by a bondmayd, the 
other by a. free woman. Yea, and he which was bome of the bond woman, 
was bome after the flesh : bnt hee which was bome of the free woman, was 
bome by Promise. Which things are spoken by an allegorie : for these are two 
Testaments, the one from the mount Sina, which gendreth vnto bondage, which is 
Agar : for mount Sina is Agar in Arabia, and bordereth vpon the City which is 
now called Hierusalem, and is in bondage with her children. But Hierusalem 
which is aboue, is free, which is the mother of vs all. For it is written, Reioyce 
thou barren that bearest no children, breake foorth and cry thou that traueilest 
not : for the desolate hath many moe children, then shee which hath an husband.

Brethren, we are after Isahac the children of Promise. But as then he that was 
borne after the flesh, persecuted him that was borne after the Spirit : enen so is it 
nowe. Neuerthelesse, what saith the Scripture ? Put away the bondwoman and her 
sonne : for the sonne of the bondwoman shall not be heire with the sonne of the 
free woman. So then brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the 
free woman. 

The Gospel. Iohn 6. 1. 

IEsus departed ouer the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias, and a great 
multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which hee did on them 
that were diseased. And Jesus went vp into a mountaine, and there hee sate with 
his Disciples. And Easter (a feast of the Jewes) was nigh. When Jesus then lift

Whence shall wee buy bread, that these may eate ? This hee sayde to prooue him|

for hee himselfe knewe what he would doe. Philip answered him, Two hnndreth 
peniworth of bread are not sufficient for them, that euery man may take a little. 
One of his Disciples, (Andrew, Simon Peters brother) sayeth vnto him, There is 
a lad which hath fiue barley loaues, and two fishes : but what are they among so 
many ? And Jesus saide, Make the people sit downe. There was much grasse in 
the place. So the men sate downe, in number about fiue thousand. And Jesus 
tooke the bread, and when he had giuen thankes, hee gaue to the Disciples, and 
the Disciples to them that were set downe, and likewise of the fishes, as much as 
they would. When they had eaten ynough, he saide vnto his disciples, Gather up 
the broken meate which remaineth, that nothing be lost. And they gathered it 
together, and filled twelue baskets with the broken meate of the fiue barley loaues, 
which broken meate remained vnto them that had eaten. Then those men (when 
they had seene the miracle that Jesus did) said, This is of a traeth the same Prophet 
that should come into the world.

WHich of yon can rebuke me of sin? If I say the trueth, why doe ye not be-

them not, because ye are not of God. Then answered the Jewes, and said vnto him, 
Say we not wel that thou art a Samaritane, and hast the deuill ? Jesus answered, I 
haue not the deuill : but I honour my Father, and ye haue dishonoured me. I 
seeke not mine owne praise, there is one that seeketh and iudgeth. Uerely, yerely 
I say vnto you, If a man keepe my saying, he shal neuer see death. Then said the

in the shape of God, thought it no robbery to be equall with God : Neuer- 
thelesse, hee made himselfe of no reputation, taking on him the shape of a seruant, 
& became like vnto men, and was found in his apparell as a man. He humbled 
himselfe, and became obedient vnto the death, euen the death of the crosse. Where- 
fore God hath also exalted him on high, and giuen him a Name, which is aboue 
all names, that in the name of Jesus euery knee should bow, both of things in hea- 
uen, and things in earth, and things vnder the earth, and that all tongues should 
cohfesse that Jesus Christ is the Lord, vnto the praise of God the Father.

A Nd it came to passe, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, hee said vnto 
J\_ his disciples, Ye knowe that after two dayes shall be Easter, & the Sonne of 
man shalbe deliuered ouer to be crucified. Then assembled together y" chief 
Priests, and the Scribes, and the Elders of the people, vnto the palace of the high 
Priest (which was called Caiaphas) and helde a Counsell, that they might take 
Jesus by subtiltie, and kill him. But they said, Not on the holy day, lest there be 
an vprore amongithe people. When Jesus was in Bethanie, in the house of Simon 
the Leper, there came vnto him a woman, hauing an Alabaster boxe of precious 
ointment, and powred it on his head as he sate at the boord. But when his dis- 
ciples sawe it, they had indignation, saying, Whereto serueth this waste ? This 
ointment might haue beene well solde, and ginen to the poore. When Jesus vnder 
stood that, hee saide vnto them, Why trouble yee the woman ? for she hath wrought

that in this same night, before the Cocke crowe, thou shalt denie mee thrise. Peter

And Jesus said vnto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come ? Then came they, and

Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall giue me enen

which is called Christ ? For he knew that for enuie they had deliuered him. When he 
was set downe to giue iudgement, his wife sent vnto him, saying, Haue thou nothing 
to doe with that iust man, for I haue suffered this day many things in my sleepe, 
because of him. But the chiefe Priestes and Elders peiswaded the people that they 
should aske Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. The Deputie answered, and said vnto 
them, Whether of the twaine will yee that I let loose vnto you ? They sayde, 
Barabbas. Pilate sayde vnto them, What shall I doe then with Jesus, which is 
called Christ? They all sayde vnto him, Let him be crucified. The Deputie 
sayd, What euill hath he done ? But they cryed more, saying, Let him be crucified.

were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth. From the sixth houre was 
there darkenesse ouer all the land, vntill the ninth houre. And about the ninth 
houre, Jesus cried with a loud voyce, saying, Eli, Eli, lamasabachthani? that is 
to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me ? Some of them that stood 
there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias. And straightway

he put it on a reede, and gaue him to drinke. Other sayd, Let be, let vs see 
whether Elias will come, and deliuer him. Jesus, when he had cryed againe with 
a loude voice, yeelded vp the Ghost. And beholde, the vaile of the Temple did 
rent in two parts from the top to the bottome, and the earth did quake, and the 
stones rent, and graues did open, and many bodies of Saints which slept, arose, and

as Peter was beneath in the palace, there came one of the wenches of the hie Priest, 
and when she saw Peter warming himselfe, she looked on him, and said, Wast not 
thou also with Jesus of Nazareth ? And hee denied, saying, I know him not, neither 
wote I what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch, and the cocke crew. 
And a Damosel (when she saw him) began againe to say to them that stood by, This 
is one of them. And he denied it againe. And anon after, they that stood by, said 
againe vnto Peter, Surely thou art one of them, for thou art of Galile, and thy speach 
agreeth thereto. But he began to curse and to sweare, saying, I know not this man 
of whom ye speake. And againe the cocke crew. And Peter remembred the worde

The Epistle. Esai. 50. 5. 

THe Lorde God hath opened mine eare, therefore can I not say nay, neither 
withdraw my selfe : but I offer my backe vnto the smiters, & my cheekes to 
the nippers. I turn not my face from shame & spitting, and the Lord God shall 
helpe me, therefore shall I not be confounded. I haue hardened my face like a 
flint stone, for I am sure that I shal not come to confusion. He is at hand that 
iustifieth me: who will then goe to law with me? Let vs stand one against 
another. If there be any that will reason with me, let him come here foorth to me. 
Behold, the Lord God standeth by me : what is he then that can codemne me? Loe, 
they shall be like as an old cloth, the moth shall eate them vp. Therefore who so 
feareth the Lord among you, let him heare the voice of his seruant. Who so 
walketh in darkenesse, and no light shineth vpon him, let him put his trust in the 
Name of the Lord, and hold him vp by his God. But take heede, yee all kindle a 
fire of the wrath of God, and stirre vp the coles. Walke on in the glistering of

ANd anon in the dawning the high Priests helde a counsaile with the Elders, and 
_£\_ the Scribes, and the whole congregation, and bound Jesus, and led him away, 
and deliuered him to Pilate. And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the 
Jewes ? And hee answered, and said vnto him, Thou sayest it. And the high 
Priestes accused him of many things. So Pilate asked him againe, saying, An- 
swerest thou nothing ? Beholde howe many things they lay to thy charge. Jesus 
answered yet nothing, so that Pilate marueiled. At that feast Pilate did deliuer 
vnto them a prisoner, whomsoeuer they would desire. And there was one that was 
named Barabbas, which laye bound with them that made insurrection : he had com- 
mitted murder. And the people called vnto him, and began to desire him that he

high Priestes among themselues, with the Scribes, and said, Hee saued other men, 
himselfe he cannot saue. Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the 
crosse, that wee may see & beleeue. And they that were crucified with him, checked 
him also. And when the sixt houre was come, darknesse arose ouer all the earth, 
vntill the ninth houre. And at the ninth houre, Jesus cried with a loud voice, 
saying, Eloi, Eloi, lamasabachthani, which is (if one interpret it) My God, my God, 
why hast thou forsaken mee ! And some of them that stood by, when they heard 
that, said, Behold, he calleth for Elias. And one ran and filled a spunge full of 
vineger, and put it on a reede, and gaue him to drinke, saying, Let him alone, let 
vs see whether Elias will come and take him downe. But Jesus cried with a lowde 
voyce, and gaue vp the ghost. And the vaile of the Temple rent in two pieces, 
from the top to the bottome. And when the Centurion (which stood before him)

Joses, and Marie Salome (which also when hee was in Galilee, had followed him, 
and ministred vnto him) and many other women, which came vp with him to 
Hierusalem. And now when the euen was come, (because it was the day of pre- 
paring that goeth before the Sabboth) Joseph of the citie of Arimathea, a noble 
counsailour, which also looked for the kingdome of God, came and went in boldly 
vnto Pilate, and begged of him the body of Jesus. And Pilate marueiled that hee 
was already dead, and called vnto him the Centurion, and asked of him whether 
hee had beene any while dead. And when hee knew the trueth of the Centurion, 
hee gaue the bodie to Joseph. And he bought a linnen cloth, and tooke him do wne, 
& wrapped him in the linnen cloth, and layed him in a Sepulchre that was hewen

The Epistle. Heb. 9. 16. 

WHereas is a Testament, there must also (of necessitie) be the death of him 
that maketh the Testament. For the Testament taketh authoritie when 
men are dead : For it is yet of no value, as long as hee that maketh the Testament 
is aliue. For whiche cause also, neither the first Testament was ordeined without 
blood. For when Moses had declared all the commaundements to all the people, 
according to the Lawe, hee tooke the blood of Calues and of Goates, with water 
and purple wooll, and hysope, and sprinckled both the booke and all the people, 
saying, This is the blood of the Testament which GOD hath appoynted vnto you. 
Moreouer, hee sprinckled the Tabernacle with blood also, and all the ministring 
vessels. And almost all things are by the Law purged with blood, and without 
shedding of blood is no remission. It is neede then that the similitudes of 
heauenly things bee purified with such things, but that the heauenly things them- 
selues bee purified with better sacrifices then are those. For Christ is not entred

officers, how hee might betray him vnto them. And they were glad, and promised 
to giue him money. And he consented and sought opportunity to betray him vnto 
them, when the people were away. Then came the day of sweet bread, when of 
necessity the Passeouer must be offered. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Goe, 
and prepare vs the Passeouer, that we may eat. They said vnto him, Where wilt 
thou that we prepare ? And he said vnto them, Behold, when yee enter into the 
Citie, there shall a man meete you, bearing a pitcher of water, him followe into the 
same house that hee entreth in, and yee shall say vnto the goodman of the house, 
The Master sayeth vnto thee, Where is the ghest chamber, where I may eate the

This same fellow was also with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know

another affirmed, saying, Uerily this fellow was with him also, for he is of Galilee. 
And Peter said, Man, I wot not what thou sayest. And immediately while hee yet

Peter remembred the word of the Lord, how hee had said vnto him, Before the

the people, teaching thorowout all Jurie, and began at Galilee, euen to this place. 
When Pilate heard mention of Galilee, hee asked whether the man were of Galilee. 
And assoone as hee knew that hee belonged vnto Herods Jurisdiction, hee sent him 
to Herode, which was also at Hierusalem at that time. And when Herode sawe 
Jesus, hee was exceeding glad : for hee was desirous to see him of a long season, 
because hee had heard many things of him, and he trusted to haue seene some 
miracles done by him. Then he questioned with him many words : but he an- 
swered him nothing. The high Priests and Scribes stood foorth, and accused him 
straitly. And Herode with his men of warre despised him. And when hee had 
mocked him, hee arayed him in white clothing, and sent him againe to Pilate.

had not consented to the counsaile and deed of them, which was of Arimathea, a 
citie of the Jewes, which same also waited for the kingdome of God : he went 
vnto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesns, and tooke it downe, and wrapped it in a 
linnen cloth, and layed it in a Sepulchre that was hewen in stone, wherein nener 
man before had beene laid. And that day was the preparing of the Sabboth, and 
the Sabboth drew on. The women that followed after, which had come with him 
from Galilee, beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laide. And they re- 
turned, and prepared sweete odours, and oyntments : but rested on the Sabboth day, 
according to the commandement.

The Epistle. Heb. io. i. 

THe Law (which hath but a shadow of good things to come, and not the very 
fashion of things themselues) can neuer with those, sacrifices which they offer 
yere by yere continually, make the commers thereunto perfect. For would not 
then those sacrifices haue ceased to haue beene offered, because that the offerers 
once purged, should haue had no more conscience of sinnes ? Neuerthelesse, in those 
sacrifices is there mention made of sinnes euery yeere. For the blood of Oxen and 
Goates cannot take away sinnes. Wherefore when hee commeth into the world, 
hee sayeth, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not haue, but a body hast thou 
ordeined mee, Burnt offerings also for sinne hast thou not allowed. Then said I, 
Loe, I am here. In the beginning of the booke it is written of mee, that I should 
doe thy will, O God. Aboue, when hee sayth, Sacrifice and offering, and burnt 
sacrifices, and sinne offerings thou wouldest not haue, neither hast thou allowed 
them (which yet are offered by the Lawe :> Then said he, Loe, I am here to doe

flesh : And seeing also that wee haue an high Priest, which is ruler ouer the house 
of GOD, let vs draw nigh with a true heart in a sure faith, sprinkled in our hearts 
from an euil conscience, and washed in our bodies with pure water. Let vs keepe 
the profession of our hope without wauering (for hee is faithfull that promised) and 
let vs consider one another, to the intent that wee may prouoke vnto loue, and to 
godd workes, not forsaking the fellowship that we haue among our selues, as the 
maner of some is : but let vs exhort one another, and that so much the' more, 
because yee see that the day draweth nigh. .

of the Jewes tooke Jesus and bound him, and led him away to Annas first, for hee 
was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high Priest the same yeere. Caiaphas 
was he that gaue counsell to the Jewes, that it was expedient that one man should 
die for the people. And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple : 
That disciple was knowen to the high Priest, and went in with Jesus into the 
palace of the high Priest. But Peter stoode at the doore without. Then went out 
that other Disciple (which was knowen to the high Priest) and spake to the 
Damosell that kept the doore, and brought in Peter. Then saide the Damosell 
that kept the doore, vnto Peter, Art not thou also one of this mans Disciples ? Hee 
sayde, I am not. The seruantes and ministers stoode there, which had made a fire 
of coales, for it was colde, and they warmed themselues. Peter also stood among 
them, and warmed himselfe. The high Priest then asked Jesus of his Disciple;,

heard mee, what I saide vnto them : Beholde, they can tell what I said. When hee 
had thus sppken, one of the ministers which stoode by, smote Jesus on the face,

Thou sayest that I am a king. For this cause was I bome, and for this cause came 
I into the world, that I should beare witnesse vnto the trueth : And all that are of 
the trueth, heare my voyce. Pilate saide vnto him, What thing is trueth ? And

I finde in him no cause at all. Yee haue a custome that I should deliuer you one

the place where Jesus was crucified, was neere to the citie. And it was written in 
Hebrew, Greeke, and Latine. Then said the high priests of the Jewes to Pilate, 
Write not, King of the Jewes : but that he said, I am king of the Jewes. Pilate 
answered, What I haue written, that I haue written. Then the souldiers, when 
they had crucified Jesus, tooke his garments, and made foure parts, to euery 
souldier a part, and also his Goate. The coate was without seame, wrought vpon 
throughout. They said therefore among themselues, Let vs not diuide it, but cast

that the Scripture might bee fulfilled, hee sayeth, I thirst. So there stood a vessel!

about with hysope, and put it to his mouth. Assoone as Jesus then receiued the 
vineger, hee said, It is finished, and bowed his head, and gaue vp the ghost. 
The Jewes therefore, because it was the preparing of the Sabboth, that the bodies 
shoufde not remaine vpon the crosse on the Sabboth day (for that Sabbath day 
was an high day) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that . they 
might be taken downe. Then came the Souldiers, and brake the legges of the 
first, and of the other which was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus, 
and sawe that hee was dead alreadie, they brake not his legges : but one of the.

body of Jesus. And Pilate gaue him licence. Hee came therefore and tooke the

IF yee bee risen againe with Christ, seeke those things which are aboue, where 
Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on heanenly things, 
and not on earthly things. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in 
God. Whensoeuer Christ (which is our life) shall shew himselfe, then shall ye also 
appeare with him in glorie. Moitifie therefore your earthly members, fornication, 
vncleannesse, vnnaturall lust, euill concupiscence, and couetousnesse, which is wor- 
shipping of idoles : for which things sake the wrath of God vseth to come on the 
children of Vnbeliefe, among whom ye walked sometime, when ye liued in them.

The Epistle. Act. 10. 34, 

PEter opened his mouth, and said, Of a traeth I perceiue that there is no 
respect of persons with God : but in all people nee that feareth him, and 
worketh righteousnesse, is accepted" with him. Ye know the preaching that God 
sent vnto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ, which is Lord 
ouer all things. Which preaching was published throughout all June (and began 
in Galilee, after the Baptisme which John preached) how God anointed Jesus of 
Nazareth with the holy Ghost, and with power : which Jesus went about doing 
good, and healing all that were oppressed of the dcuil : for God was with him.

they Pilate to kill him. And when they had fulfilled all that were written of him, 
they tooke him downe from the tree, and put him in a sepulchre. But God raised 
him againe from death the third day, and hee was seene many dayes of them 
which went with him from Galilee to Hierusalem, which are witnesses vnto the

And it is the spirit that beareth witnesse, because the spirit is trueth. For there

and these three are one. And there are three which beare record in earth, the 
spirit, and water, and blood, and these three are one. If we receiue the witnesse of 
men, the witnes of God is greater : for this is the witnes of God, which he testifieth 
of his sonne. He that beleeueth on the Sonne of God, hath the witnesse in him- 
selfe. Hee that beleeueth not God, hath made him a liar, because hee beleeueth 
not the record that God gaue of his Sonne. And this is the record, how that God 
hath giuen vnto vs eternal life, and this life is in his Sonne. Hee that hath the 
Sonne, hath life, and he that hath not the Sonne of God, hath not life.

The Epistle. I Pet. a. 11. 

DEarely beloued, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrimes, absteine from fleshly 
lustes, which fight against the soule, and see that ye haue honest conuersation 
among the Gentiles, that whereas they backbite yon as euill doers, they may see 
yonr good workes, and praise God in the day of visitation. Submit your selues 
.therefore euery man for the Lords sake, whether it be vnto the King, as vnto the 
chiefe head, either vnto Rulers, as vnto them that are sent of him for the punishment 
of euill doers,.but for the laud of them that do well. For so is the will of God, 
that with well doing yee may stop the mouthes of foolish and ignorant men, as free, 
and not as hauing the libertie for a cloake of maliciousnesse, but euen as the ser- 
vants of God. Honour all men : Loue brotherly fellowship : Feare God : Honour 
the King.

The Gospel. Ioh. 16. 16. 

IEsus said to his Disciples, After a while ye shall not see me, and againe, after a 
while yee shal see me, for I go to the Father. Then said some of his Disciples 
betweene themselues, What is this that hee saith vnto vs, After a while ye shall not 
see mee, and againe, after a while ye shal see me, and that I go to the Father ? They 
said therefore, What is this that hee saith, After a while ? Wee cannot tell what he 
saith. Jesus perceiued that they would aske him, and saide vnto them, Ye enquire 
of this betweene your selues, because I said, After a while ye shall not see mee, and 
againe, After a while ye shall see me. Uerily, verily I say vnto you, Yee shall 
weepe and lament, but contrariwise the world shall reioyce. Ye shall sorrow, but 
your sorrow shall be turned to ioy. A woman when she trauaileth, hath sorrow, be- 
cause her houre is come : but assoone as ghee is deliuered of the childe, she remem- 
breth no more the anguish, for ioy that a man is borne into the world. And ye

SEe that ye be doers of the word, and not hearers onely, decerning your owne 
selues. For if any man heare the worde, and declareth not the same by Ms 
workes, hee is like vnto a man beholding his bodily face in a glasse : for assoone as 
hee hath looked on bimselfe, he goeth his way, and forgetteth immediatly what 
his fashion was. But who so looketh in the perfect law of libertie, and continueth 
therein, if he be a forgetfull hearer, but a doer of the worke, the same shall be 
happy in his deed. If any man among you seeme to be deuoute, & refraineth not 
his tongue, but deceiueth his owne heart, this mans deuotion is in vaine. Pure 
deuotion, and vndefiled before God the Father is this, to visit the fatherlesse and 
widowes in their aduersitie, and to keepe himselfe vnspotted of the world.

Jesus of Nazareth with the holy ghost, and with power. Which Jesns went about 
doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the deuill : for God was with 
him. And we are witnesses of all things, which hee did in the land of the 
Jewes, and at Hiernsalem : whome they slewe and hanged on a tree : Him God 
raised vp the third day, and shewed him openly, not to all the people, but vnto vs 
witnesses (chosen before of God for the same intent) which did eate and drinke with 
•him after he arose from death. And he commanded vs to preach vnto the people, 
and to testifie, that it is hee which was ordeined of God to bee the iudge of quicke 
and dead. To him gine all the Prophets witnesse, that through his Name whoso- 
euer beleeueth in him, shall receiue remission of sinnes. While Peter yet spake 
these words, the holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the preaching. And 
they of the circumcision, which beleeued, were astonied, as many as came with 
Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was shedde out the gift of the holy Ghost.

For they heard them speake with tongnes, and magnifie God. Then answered 
Peter, Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which haue 
receiued the holy Ghost as well as we ? And hee commaunded them to be bap-

SO God loued -the world, that he gaue his only begotten sonne, that whosoener

not his sonne into the world to condemne the world, but that the world through him 
might be saued. Hee that beleeueth on him, is not condemned. But he that 
beleeueth not, is condemned already, because hee hath not beleeued in the Name 
of the only begotten sonne of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is

The Gospel. Iohn io. i. 

VErily, verily I say vnto you, he that entreth not in by the doore into the sheepe- 
fold, but climeth up some other way, the same is a thiefe and a murderer. 
But he that entreth in by the doore, is the shepheard of the sheepe : To him the 
porter openeth, and the sheepe heare his voice, and he calleth his owne sheep by 
name, and leadeth them out. And when hee hath sent foorth his owne sheepe, 
hee goeth before them, and the sheepe follow him, for they know his voice> A 
stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him : for they know not the voice 
of strangers. This prouerbe spake Jesus vnto them, but they vnderstood not what 
things they were which he spake vnto them. Then said Jesus vnto them againe, 
Uerely, verely, I say vnto you, I am the doore of the sheep. All, euen as many as

knoweth not God : For God is loue. In this appeareth the loue of God to vsward, 
because that God sent his only begotten Sonne into the world, that we might line 
through him. Herein is loue, not, that we loued God, but that he loued vs, & 
sent his sonne to be the agreement for our sinnes. Dearely beloued, if God so 
loued vs, we ought also one to loue another. No man hath seene God at any time. 
If wee loue one another, God dwelleth in vs, and his loue is perfect in vs. Here- 
by know wee that we dwell in him, and hee in vs, because he hath giuen vs of his 
Spirit. And we haue seene, and doe testifie, that the Father sent the Sonne to be the 
Sauiour of the world. Whosoener confesseth that Jesus is the Sonne of God, in 
him dwelleth God, and he in God. And we haue knowen and beleeued the loue

feareth, is not perfect in loue. We loue him, for he loued vs first. If any man say, 
I loue God, and yet hate his brother, hee is a liar. For how can hee that loueth

Lorde, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is roume. And the Lord

nine in the wildernesse, and goeth after that which is lost, vntill hee finde it ? And 
when hee hath found it, hee layeth it on his shoulders with ioy : and assoone as hee

Reioyce with mee, for I haue found my sheepe which was lost. I say vnto you, 
that likewise ioy shall be in heauen ouer one sinner that repe'nteth, more then ouer 
ninetie and nine iust persons, which neede no repentance. Either what woman, 
hauing ten groates (if shee lose one) doeth not light a candle, and sweepe the 
house, and seeke diligently till she find it ? and when she hath found it, she calleth 
her louers and her neighbours together, saying, Reioyce with me, for I haue found

IT came to passe, that when the people preassed vpon him to heare the word of 
God, hee stood by the lake of Genezareth, and saw two shippes stand by the 
lakes side, but the fishermen were gone out of them, & were washing their nets. 
And hee entered into one of the shippes (which pertained to Simon) and prayed 
him that hee would thrust out a little from the land. And hee sate downe, and 
taught the people out of the shippe. When hee had left speaking, hee sayd vnto

Simon, Launch out into the deepe, and let slip your nets to make a draught. And 
Simon answered, and said vnto him, Master, we haue laboured all night, and haue 
taken nothing : Neuerthelesse, at thy commandement I will loose foorth the net. 
And when they had so done, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes. But their 
net brake, and they beckened to their fellowes which were in the other ship, that 
they should come and helpe them. And they came, and filled both shippes, that 
they sunke againe. When Simon Peter saw this, hee fell downe at Jesus knees, 
saying, Lord, go from me, for I am a sinfull man. For he was astonied, and all 
that were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had taken : and so was also 
James and John the sonnes of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And 
Jesus sayd vnto Simon, Feare not, from henceforth thou shalt catch men. And 
they brought the ships to land, and forsooke all, and followed him.

euen so now giue ouer your members seruants vnto righteousnesse, that ye may be

What fruit had ye then in those things whereof yee are now ashamed ? for the end 
of those things is death. But now are ye deliuered from sinne, and made the ser- 
uants of God, and haue your fruit to be sanctified, and the end euerlasting life. For 
the reward of sinne is death, but eternall life is the gift of God, through Jesus

The Epistle. Rom. 8. 12. 

BRethren, we are debters, not to the flesh, to Hue after the flesh : For if ye liue 
after the flesh, ye shall die. But if ye through the spirit doe mortifie the 
deedes of the body, yee shall liue. For as many as are led by the spirit of God, 
they are the sonnes of God. For ye haue not receiued the spirit of bondage to feare 
any more : but ye haue receiued the spirit of adoption, whereby we crie Abba, 
Father. The same spirit certifieth our spirit, that we are the sonnes of God. If we 
be sonnes, then are we also heires, the heires (I meane) of God, and heires annexed 
with Christ, if so be that we suffer with him, that wee may also bee .glorified to- 
gether with him.

within himselfe. What shall I doe? For my master taketh away from me the

when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue me into their houses. So 
when he had called all his masters debters together, hee sayd vnto the first, How 
much owest thou vnto my master? And he sayd, An hundred tunnes of oyle. And 
he said vnto him, Take thy bill, and sit downe quickly, and write fiftie. Then said 
he to another, How much owest thou? And he said, An hundred quarters of wheate. 
He said vnto him, Take thy bill, & write fourescore. And the Lord commended 
the vniust Steward, because he had done wisely. For the children of this world are 
in their nation wiser then the children of light. And I say vnto you, make you 
friends of the vnrighteous Mammon, that when ye shall haue neede, they may receiue 
you into euerlasting habitations.

The Epistle, i Cor. 12. i. 

Concerning Spirituall things, brethren, I would not haue you ignorant. Ye 
know that yee were Gentiles, and went your wayes vnto dumbe images, euen 
as yee were led. Wherefore I declare vnto you, that no man speaking by the 
spirit of God, defieth Jesus. Also no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by 
the holy Ghost. There are diuersities of gifts, yet but one spirit. And there are 
differences of administrations, and yet but one Lord. And there are diuers manners 
of operations, and yet but one God, which worketh all in all. The gift of the spirit 
is giuen to euery man to edifie withall. For to one is giuen through the spirit, 
the vtterance of wisedome, to another is giuen the vtterance of knowledge by the 
same spirit, to another is giuen faith by the same spirit, to another the gift of healing

SUch trust haue wee through Christ to Godward, not that we are sufficient of 
our selues to thinke any thing as of our selues : but if wee be able vnto any 
thing, the same commeth of God, which hath made vs able to minister the newe 
Testament, not of the letter, but of the spirit : For the letter killeth, but the spirit 
giueth life. If the ministration of death, through the letters figured in stones, was 
glorious, so that the children of Israel could not behold the face of Moses for 
the glory of his countenance (which glory is done away :) why shal not the minis-' 
tration of the spirit be much more glorious? For if the ministration of condenv/ 
nation be glorious, much more doeth the ministration of righteousnesse exceede in 
glory.

IEsus departed from the coastes of Tyre and Sidon, and came vnto the Sea of

vnto him one that was deafe, and had an impediment in his speech : and they 
prayed him to put his hande vpon him. And when he had taken him aside from 
the people, hee put his fingers into his eares, and did spit, and touched his tongue, 
and looked vp to heauen, & sighed, and said vnto him, Ephata-, that is to say. 
Bee opened. And straightway his eares were opened, and the string of his tongue 
was loosed, and he spake plaine. And he commanded them that they should tel 
no man. But the more he forbade them, so much the more a great deale they 
published, saying, He hath done all things well, he hath made both the deafe to 
teare, and the dumbe to speake.

''O Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not in his seeds, 
X as many : but, In thy seed, as of one which is Christ. This I say, y' the law 
which began afterward beyond foure hundred and thirtie yeres, doeth not disanull 
the Testament that was confirmed afore of God vnto Christward, to make the pro- 
mise of none effect. For if the inheritance come of the lawe, it commeth not now 
of promise : But God gaue it to Abraham by promise. Wherefore then serueth 
the law ? The law was added because of transgression (till the seede came, to whom 
the promise was made) and it was ordeined by Angels in the hand of a mediatour.

A mediatour is not a mediatour of one : but God is one. Is the law then against 
the promise of God ? God forbid. For if there had been a lawe giuen which could 
haue giuen life, then no doubt righteousnes should haue come by the law. But 
the Scripture concludeth all things vnder sinne, that the promise by the faith of Jesus 
Christ should bee giuen to them that beleeue. 

The Gospel. Luke 10. 23. 

HAppie are the eyes which see the things that yee see. For I tell you that 
many Prophets and Kings haue desired to see those thinges which yee see, and 
haue not seene them, and to heare those things which ye heare, & haue not heard 
them. And behold, a certaine lawyer stoode vp, and tempted him, saying, Master, 
what shall I do to inherite eternall life ? He sayd vnto him, What is written in the 
Lawe ? How readest thou ? And he answered, and said, Loue the Lord thy God

right : this doe, and thou shalt line. But he willing to iustifie Jiimselfe, said vnto 
Jesus, And who is my neighbour ? Jesus answered and said, A certaine man descend- 
ed from Hierusalem to Iericho, and fell among theeues, which robbed him of his 
raiment, & wounded him, and departed, leauing him halfe dead. And it chanced 
that there came downe a certaine Priest that same way, and when he saw him, he 
passed by. And likewise a Leuite (when hee went nigh to the place) came and 
looked on him, and passed by. But a certaine Samaritane, as he iourneyed, came 
vnto him, and when he saw him, hee had compassion on him, and went to him, 
and bound vp his wounds, and powred in oyle and wine, and set him on his owne 
beast, and brought him to a common Inne, & made prouision for him. And on 
the morrow when he departed, he tooke out two pence, and gaue them to the hoste,

straine you to be circumcised, onely lest they should suffer persecution for y crosse 
of Christ. For they themselues which are circumcised, keepe not the law, but 
desire to haue you circumcised, that they might reioyce in your flesh. God forbid 
that I should reioice, but in the crosse of our Lord Jesus Christ, whereby the world 
is crucified vnto me, and I vnto the world. For in Christ Jesu, neither circumci- 
sion auaileth any thing at all, nor vncircumcision, but a new creature. And as 
many as walke according vnto this rule, peace be on them, and mercie, and vpon 
Israel, that pertaineth to God. From henceforth let no man put me to businesse :

the foules of the aire, for they sowe not, neither do they reape, nor cary into the 
barnes, and your heauenly Father feedeth them. Are yee not much better then 
they? Which of you by taking carefull thought can adde one cubite vnto his 
stature ? And why care ye for raiment ? Consider the Lillies of the field how they 
grow, they labour not, neither doe they spinne : and yet I say vnto you, that euen 
Salomon in all his royalty was not clothed like one of these. Wherefore if God so 
clothe the grasse of the field, which though it stand to day, is to morrow cast into 
the fornace, shall hee not much more doe the same for you, O ye of little faith ?

highest roume, lest a more honourable man then thou bee bidden of him, and hee 
that bade him and thee, come and say to thee, Giue this man roume : and thou

a question, tempting him, and saying, Master, which is the greatest commandement 
in the Lawe ? Jesus sayd vnto him, Thou shalt lone y 6 Lord thy God with all thine 
heart, & with all thy sonle, and with all thy minde. This is the first and greatest 
Commandement. And the second is like vnto it, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as 
thy selfe. In these two Commandements hang all the Law and the Prophets. 
While the Pharises were gathered together, Jesus asked them, saying, What thinke 
ye of Christ ? whose sonne is he ? They said vnto him, The Sonne of Dauid. Hee 
said vnto them, How then doeth Dauid in spirit call him Lord, saying, The Lord 
saide vnto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy 
footstoole 1 1f Dauid then call him Lord, how is he then his sonne ? And no man

IEsus entred into a ship, and passed ouer, and came into Ms owne City. And 
beholde, they brought to him a man sicke of the palsie, lying in a bed. And 
when Jesus saw the faith of them, hee saide to the sicke of the palsie, Sonne, be 
of good cheere, thy sinnes be forgiuen thee. And beholde, certaine of the Scribes 
saide within themselues, This man blasphemeth. And when Jesus saw their thoughts, 
hee said, Wherefore thinke ye euil in your hearts ? Whether is it easier to say, Thy 
sinnes be forgiuen thee : or to say, Arise, and walke ? But that ye may know that 
the Sonne of man hath power to forgiue sinnes in earth : Then saith he to the sicke 
of the palsie, Arise, take vp thy bed, and goe vnto thy house. And he arose, 
and departed to his house. But the people that sawe it, marueiled,' and glorified 
God, which had giuen such power vnto men.

/Esus said, The kingdome of heanen is like vnto a man that was a King, which 
made a marriage for his Sonne, and sent foorth his seruants to call them that 
were bidden to the wedding : and they would not come. Againe hee sent foorth 
other seruants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Beholde, I hane prepared my 
dinner, mine oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready : come vnto 
the marriage. But they made light of it, and went their wayes, one to his farme 
place, another to his merchandise, and the remnant tooke his seruants, and intreated 
them shamefully, and slewe them. But when the King heard thereof, he was wroth, 
and sent foorth his men of warre, and destroyed those murtherers, and burnt vp 
their Citie. Then said hee vnto his seruants, The marriage indeede is prepared, but 
they which were bidden, were not worthy. Goe yee therefore out into the high 
wayes, and as many as yee finde, bid them to the marriage. And the seruants went 
foorth into the high wayes, and gathered together all, as many as they could finde,

THere was a certaine ruler, whose sonne was sicke at Capernaum. As soonne 
as the same heard that Jesus was come out of Jury into Galilee, he went vnto 
him, and besought him that hee would come downe and heale his sonne, for he 
was euen at the point of death. Then saide Jesus vnto him, Except yee see signes 
and wonders, ye wil not beleeue. The ruler sayd vnto him, Sir, come downe or 
euer that my sonne die. Jesus saith vnto him, Go thy way, thy sonne liueth. The 
man beleeued y" word that Jesus had spoken vnto him, and he went his way. And 
as hee was going downe, the seruants met him, and told him, saying, Thy Sonne 
liueth. Then enquired he of them the houre when he began to amend. And they 
said vnto him, Yesterday at the seuenth houre the Feuer left him. So the father

commaunded him to bee solde, and his wife and children, and all that hee had,

and found one of his fellowes which ought him an hundred pence : and hee laide 
hands on him, and tooke him by the throate, saying, Pay that thou owest. And 
his fellow fell downe, and besought him, saying, Haue patience with me, and I 
wil pay thee all. And he would not, but he went and cast him into prison, til he 
should pay the debt. So when his fellowes saw what was done, they were very 
sorrie, and came and tolde vnto their Lord all that had happened. Then his Lord 
called him, and said vnto him, O thou vngracious seruant, I forgaue thee all that

WHile Jesus spake vnto the people, behold, there came a certaine ruler and 
worshipped him, saying, My daughter is euen now deceassed, but come and 
lay thine hand vpon her, and she shall liue. And Jesus arose and followed him, 
and so did his disciples. And beholde, a woman which was diseased with an issue 
of blood twelue yeeres, came behind him, & touched the hemme of his vesture. 
For she said within her selfe, If I may touch but euen his vesture onely, I shalbe 
safe. But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he sayd, Daughter, bee of 
good comfort, thy faith hath made thee safe. And the woman was made whole 
euen that same time. And when Jesus came into the rulers house, and saw the 
minstrels and people making a noyse, he said vnto them, Get you hence, for the

WHen Jesus lift vp his eies, & saw a great company come vnto him, he 
saith vnto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread that these may eate ? This 
he said to prooue him, for hee himselfe knewe what hee would do. Philip an- 
swered him, Two hundreth peniworth of bread are not sufficient for them, that 
euery man may take a little. One of his disciples (Andrew Simon Peters brother) 
said vnto him, There is a lad here, which hath fine barly loaues 8c two fishes, but 
what are they among so many? And Jesus said, Make the people sit downe. There 
was much grasse in the place. So the men sate downe, in number about fiue thousand.

The Epistle. Rom. 10. 9. 

IF thou acknowledge with thy mouth that Jesus is the Lorde, and beleeue in thy 
heart that God raised him vp from death, thou shalt bee safe. For to beleeue 
with the heart, iustineth, and to knowledge with the mouth, maketh a man safe. 
For the Scripture sayeth, Whosoeuer beleeueth on him, shall not bee confounded. 
There is no difference betweene the Jewe and the Gentile : For one is Lorde of all, 
which is rich vnto all that call vpon him. For whosoeuer doeth call on the Name 
of the Lorde, shall be safe. How then shall they call on him, on whom they haue 
not beleened? How shall they beleeue on him, of whome they haue not heard? 
How shall they heare without a preacher ? And how shall they preach without 
they be sent? As it is written, How beautifull are the feete of them which bring

and put my finger into the print of the nailes, and thrust my hand into his side, I 
will not beleeue. And after eight dayes againe his disciples were within, and

thou hast beleeued. Blessed are they that haue not seene, and yet haue beleeued. 
And many other signes truely did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which 
are not written in this booke. These are written, mat yee might beleeue, that Jesus

might bring them bound to Hierusalem. And when he iourneyed, it fortuned that 
as he was come nigh to Damasco, suddenly there shined round about him a light 
from heanen, and he fel to the earth, & heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, 
why persecutest thou me? And he said. What art thou Lord? And the Lord said, 
I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kicke against the pricke. 
And he both trembling and astonied, said, Lord, what wilt thou haue me to doe ? 
And the Lord said vnto him, Arise and go into the Citie, and it shalbe told thee' 
what thou must doe. The men which ioumeyed with him, stood amazed, hearing

And there was a certaine disciple at Damasco, named Ananias : and to him said the 
Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Beholde, I am here Lord. And the Lord 
said vnto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and seeke in 
the house of Judas, after one called Saul of Tharsus. For behold, he prayeth, & 
hath seene in a vision a man named Ananias, comming in vnto him, and putting his 
handes on him, that hee might receiue his sight. Then Ananias answered, Lord, I 
haue heard by many of this man, how much euil he hath done to the saints at 
Hierusalem. And here he hath authority of the hie Priests, to binde all that call on 
thy Name. The Lord said vnto him, Goe thy way, for he is a chosen vessell vnto 
me, to beare my Name before the Gentiles, & Kings, & the children of Israel.

Ananias went his way, and entred into the house, and put his hands on him, and 
said, Brother Saul, the Lord that appeared vnto thee in the way as thou earnest, 
hath sent me, that thou mightest receiue thy sight, and be filled with the holy 
Ghost. And immediatly there fell from his eyes as it had bene scales, and hee 
receiued sight, and arose, and was baptized, and receiued meate, and was comforted. 
Then was Saul a certaine dayes with the disciples which were at Damasco. And 
straightway hee preached Christ in the Synagogues, how that hee was the Sonne of 
God. But all that heard him, were amazed, and said, Is not this he that spoiled 
them which called on this name in Hierusalem, and came hither for that intent, 
that hee might bring them bound vnto the hie Priestes ? But Saul increased the 
more in strength, and confounded the Jewes which dwelt at Damasco, affirming 
that this was very Christ.

The Epistle. Act. 1. 15. 

IN those dayes Peter stood vp in the middes of the disciples, and saide, (The 
number of names that were together, were about an hundred and twentie) Yee 
men and brethren, this Scripture must needes hane bene fulfilled, which the holy 
Ghost, through the mouth of Dauid, spake before of Judas, which was guide to 
them that tooke Jesus. For he was numbred with vs, and had obtained fellowship 
in this ministration. And the same hath nowe possessed a plat of ground with the 
reward of iniquitie, and when he was hanged, burst asunder in the middes, and all 
his bowels gashed out. And it is knowen vnto all the inhabiters of Hierusalem, 
insomuch that the same fielde is called in their mother tongue, Acheldama, that is

Jesus had all his conuersation among vs, beginning at the baptisme of John, vnto 
that same day that he was taken vp from vs) must one be ordeined to be a witnesse 
with vs of his resurrection. And they appointed two : Joseph, which is called 
Barsabas (whose surname was Justus) and Matthias. And when they prayed, they 
sayd, Thou Lord which knowest the hearts of all men, shewe whether of these two 
thou hast chosen, that he may take the roome of this ministration and Apostleship, 
from which Judas by transgression fell, that hee might goe into his owne place. 
And they gaue forth their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was counted 
with the eleuen Apostles. 

The Gospel. Matt. 11. 25. 

IN that time Jesus answered, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heauen 
and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise & prudent, and 
hast shewed them vnto babes : Uerily Father, euen so was it thy good pleasure.

ANd in the sixt moneth, the Angel Gabriel was sent from God, vnto a Citie of

Joseph, of the house of Dauid, and the virgins name was Mary. And the Angel

cast in her mind what maner of salutation that should be. And the Angel said 
vnto her, Feare not Mary, for thou hast found grace with God : Behold, thou shalt 
conceiue in thy wombe, and beare a sonne, and shalt call his name Jesus. He shalbe 
great, and shall be called the sonne of the Highest. And the Lord God shall giue 
vnto him the seate of his father Dauid, and he shall reigne ouer the house of Jacob 
for euer, and of his kingdome there shall be none end. Then said Mary to the Angel, 
How shall this be, seeing I know not a man ? And the Angel answered, and said 
vnto her, The holy Ghost shall come vpon thee, and the power of the Highest shall 
ouershadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shalbe borne shalbe called 
the sonne of God. And behold, thy cousin Elizabeth, she hath also conceiued a 
Sonne in her age, and this is the sixt moneth, which was called barren : for with 
God nothing shalbe vnpossible. And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the 
Lord, bee it vnto me according to thy word. And the Angel departed from her.

him that giueth it, euen God, which giueth to all men indifferently, and casteth no 
man in the teeth, and it shall be giuen him. But let him aske in faith, and wauer 
not. For he that doubteth, is like a wane of the Sea, which is tost of the winds, 
and caried with violence : neither let that man thinke, that hee shall receiue any 
thing of the Lord. A wauering minded man is vnstable in all his wayes. Let the 
brother which is of low degree, reioyce when he is exalted. Againe, let him that is 
rich, reioyce when he is made low : For euen as the floure of the grasse shall he 
passe away. For as the sunne riseth with heat, and the grasse withereth, and his 
floure falleth away, and the beautie of the fashion of it perisheth : euen so shal the

Which when he came, & had seene the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted 
them all, that with purpose of heart they wonld continually cleaue vnto the Lord. 
For he was a good man, and full of the holy Ghost, and of faith, & much people was 
added vnto the Lord. Then departed Barnabas to Tharsus to seeke Saul : arid 
when he had found him, he brought him vnto Antioch. And it chanced, that a 
whole yere they had their conuersation with the congregation there, and they taught 
much people, insomuch that the disciples of Antioch, were the first that were called 
Christen. In those dayes came Prophets from the citie of Hierusalem vnto Antioch. 
And there stood vp one of them, named Agabus, and signified by the spirit, that

mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. The same voice spake, Now crie. And the 
Prophet answered, What shal I crie? That all flesh is grasse, and that all the 
goodlinesse thereof is as the floure of the field. The grasse is withered, the floure 
falleth away. Euen so is the people as grasse, when the breath of the Lord bloweth 
vpon them. Neuerthelesse, whether the grasse wither, or that the floure fade away, 
yet the word of our God endnreth for euer. Goe vp vnto the hie hill (O Sion) thou 
that bringest good tidings, lift vp thy voice with power, O thou preacher Hierusalem, 
lift it vp without feare, and say vnto the cities of Juda, Beholde your God, beholde, 
the Lord God shall come with power, and beare rule with his arme. Behold, he 
' bringeth his treasure with him, and his works goe before him. He shall feede his

carie them in his bosome, and shall kindly entreate those that beare young.

And her neighbours and her cousins heard say howe the Lord had shewed 
great mercie vpon her, and reioyced with her. And it fortuned, that in the eight 
day they came to circumcise the childe, and called his name Zacharie, after the name 
of his father. And his mother answered and said, Not so, but his name shall be 
called John. And they said vnto her, There is none of thy kinred that is named 
with this name. And they made signes to his father, how he would haue him called. 
And he asked for writing tables, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they 
marueiled all. And his mouth was opened immediatly and his tongue also, and 
he- spake and praised God. And feare came on all them that dwelt nigh vnto him. 
And all these sayings were noysed abroad throughout all the hie countrey of Jurie, 
and they that heard them, laide them vp in their hearts, saying, What maner of

promised by the mouth of his holy Prophets, which were "since the world began. 
That we should be saued from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate vs. 
That he would deale mercifully with our fathers, and remember his holy Couenant :

intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. And Peter was kept in

And when Herod would haue brought him out vnto the people, the same night

The Gospel. Matt. 16. 13. 

WHen Jesus came into the coasts of the Citie, which is called Cesarea Philippi, 
hee asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the sonne of man 
am ? They said, Some say that thou art John Baptist, some Elias, some Jeremias, 
or one of the Prophets. He saieth vnto them, But whom say ye that I am ? Simon 
Peter answered and said, Thou art Christ the Sonne of the liuing God. And Jesus

answered and said, Ye wot not what ye aske. Are ye able to drinke of the cup that 
I shall drinke of? and to be baptized with the baptisme that I am baptized with ? 
They said vnto him, We are. He said vnto them, Yee shall drinke in deed of my 
cuppe, and be baptized with the baptisme that I am baptized with : but to sit on 
my right hand and on my left, is not mine to giue, but it shall chance vnto them 
that it is prepared for of my Father. And when the ten heard this, they disdained

the princes of the nations haue dominion ouer them, and they that are great men, 
exercise authoritie vpon them. . It shall not be so among you. But whosoeuer

not out of kinde, but haue cast from vs the cloakes of vnhonestie, and walke 
not in craftinesse, neither handle we the worde of God deceitfully, but open the 
trneth, and report our selues to enery mans conscience in the sight of God. If our 
Gospel bee yet hidde, it is hidde among them that are lost, in whome the God of 
this worlde hath blinded the mindes of them which beleeue not, least the light of 
the Gospel of the glorie of Christ (which is the image of God) should shine vnto 
them. For we preach not our selues, but Christ Jesus to bee the Lorde, and

The Gospel. Matt. 9. 9. 
ANd as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man (named Matthew) sitting at 
A *he receit of custome : and he said vnto him, Follow me. And he arose and 
followed him. And it came to passe, as Jesus sate at meate in his house, behold, 
many Publicanes also and sinners that came, sate downe with Jesus and his disciples. 
And when the Pharises sawe it, they said vnto his disciples, Why eateth your 
master with Publicanes and sinners ? But when Jesus heard that, he said vnto them, 
They that be strong, neede not the Physicion, but they that are sicke. Goe ye rather 
and learne what that meaneth : I will haue mercie, and not sacrifice. For I am 
not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

their place found any more in heauen. And the great Dragon, that old Serpent, 
called the deuill and Satanas, was cast out, which deceiueth all the world. And he 
was cast into the earth, and his angels were cast out also with him. And I heard a

write vnto yon of the common saluation, it was needfull for me to write vnto you, 
to exhort you that ye should continually labour in the faith, which was once giuen 
■vnto the Saints. For there are certaine vngodly men, craftily crept in, of which it 
was written aforetime vnto such iudgement : They tnrne the grace of our God into 
wantonnesse, and denie God (which is the onely Lord) and our Lord Jesus Christ. 
My minde is therefore to put you in remembrance, forasmuch as yee once know 
this, how that the Lord (after that he had deliuered the people out of Egypt) 
destroyed them which after beleeued not. The angels also which kept not their 
first state, but left their owne habitation, hee hath reserued in euerlasting chaines 
vnder darknesse, vnto the iudgement of the great day. Euen as Sodome and 
Gomorrhe, and the cities about them, which in like maner denied themselues with 
fornication, and followed strange flesh, are set forth for an example, and suffer the 
paine of eternall fire. Likewise these being deceiued by dreames, defile the flesh, 
despise rulers, and speake euil of them that are in authoritie.

The Gospel. Iohn 15. 17. 

THis command I yon, that ye lone together. If the world hate you, ye 
know it hated mee before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world 
would loue his owne : howbeit, because yee are not of the world, but I haue chosen 
you out of the world, therefore the worlde hateth you. Remember the worde that 
I said vnto you, The sernant is not greater-then the Lord. If they haue persecuted 
me, they will also persecute you. If they haue kept my saying, they will keepe 
yours also. But all these things wil they do vnto you for my Names sake, because 
they haue not knowen him that sent me. If I had not come and spoken vnto them, 
they should haue had no sinne : but nowe haue they nothing to cloke their sinne 
withal. He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. If I had not done among

Taaercifull, for they shall obtaine mercie. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they 
shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall bee called the children 
of God. Blessed are they which suffer persecution for righteousnesse sake, for 
theirs is the kingdome of heauen. Blessed are yee when men resile yon, and 
persecute you, and shall falsly say all maner of euill sayings against you for my 
sake, reioyce and be glad, for great is your reward in heauen. For so persecuted 
they the Prophets which were before you.

X, So many as intend to be- partakers of 
the Holy Communion, shall signify 
their Names to the Curate at least 
some time the day before. 

X And if any of those be an open and 
notorious evil liver, or have done any 
wrong to his neighbours by word or 
deed, so that the Congregation be 
thereby offended; the Curate having 
knowledge thereof, shall call hint and 
advertise him, that in any wise he 
presume not to come to the Lord's 
Table, until he hath openly declared 
himself to have truly repented, and 
amended his former naughty life, that 
the Congregation may thereby be satis- 
fied, which before were offended; and 
that he hath recompensed the parties 
to whom he hath done wrong, or at 
least declare himself to be in full pur* 
pose so to do, as soon as he conveni- 
ently may. 

If The same order shall the Curate use 
with those betwixt whom he perceiv-. 
eth malice and hatred to reign; not 
suffering them to be partakers of the 
Lord's Table, until -he knows them 
to be reconciled. And if one of the 
parties, so at variance, be content to 
forgive from the bottom of his heart 
all that the other [hath trespassed 
.against him, and to make amends for 
that he himself hath offended ; and 



1 Beneath ".ainrick " are placed three points v 
•{'* Overnight, or else in the morning afore the beginning of Morning Prayer, or 
irilmediately after. 

. ! 3 So that the congregation by him is qffended, or have done any wrong to his 
neighbours by word or deed. 
' * In any wise not to presume.

Which thing ye shall do, if yee stand by as gazers and lookers on them that doe

this be accounted else, then a farther contempt and vnkindnesse vnto God. Truely 
it is a great vnthankefulnesse to say nay, when ye be called : but the fault is much

IT 1 And sometime shall be said this also at the discretion of the Curate. 

Dearely beloued, forasmuch as our dnetie is to render to Almighty God our 
heauenly Father most hearty thankes, for that he hath giuen his Sonne our Sauiour 
Jesns Christ, not onely to die for vs,but also to be our spiritnall foode and sustenance, 
as it is declared vnto vs, as well by Gods word, as by the holy Sacraments of his 
blessed bodie and blood, the which being so comfortable a thing to them which 
receive it worthily, and so dangerous to them that wil presume to receiue it vn- 
worthily : my duetie is to exhort you to consider the dignity of the holy mysterie, 
and the great peril of the vnworthy receiuing thereof, and so to search and 
examine your owne consciences, as you should come holy and clean to a most 
godly and heauenly feast, so that in no wise you come but in the manage 
garment required of God in holy Scriptures; and so come and be receiued, as 
worthy partakers of such a heauenly Table. The way and meanes thereto, is : 
First to examine your lines and conuersation by the rule of Gods commandements, 
and wherein so ener ye shall perceiue your selves to haue offended, either by will, 
word, or deed, there bewaile your own sinfull lines, and confess your selves to Almightie 
God, with full purpose of amendement of life. And if ye shall perceiue your offences 
to be such, as bee not only against God, but also against your neighbours : then ye 
shall reconcile your selves vnto them, ready to make restitution & satisfaction, 
according to the vttermost of yonr powers, for all iniuries and wrongs done by 
you to any other, and likewise being ready to forgive other that haue offended 
you, as you would haue forgiuenesse of your offences at Gods hand : For otherwise 
the receiuing of the holy Communion doeth nothing else but increase your damna- 
tion. And because it is requisite that no man should come to the holy Com- 
munion, but with a full trust in Gods mercie, and with a quiet conscience : therefore 
if there be any of you, which by the meanes aforesaid can not quiet his own con- 
science, but requireth further comfort or counsell, then let him come to mee, or 
some other discreete and learned minister of Gods word, and open his griefe, that 
hee may receiue such ghostly counsale, aduice, and comfort, as his conscience may 
bee relieued, and that by the ministerie of Gods word he may receiue comfort, and 
the benefite of absolution, to the quieting of his conscience, and auoiding of all 
scruple and doubtfulnesse.

If Upon the Sundays and other Holy- 
days (if there be no Communion) 
shall be said all that is appointed 
at the Communion until the end 
of the general Prayer [For the 
whole state of Christ's Church mili- 
tant here in Earth] together with one 
or more of these Collects last before 
rehearsed, concluding with the Bless- 
ing. 

% And there shall be no celebration of 
the Lord's Supper, except there be 'a 
convenient Number to communicate 
with the Priest, according to his dis- 
cretion. 

If And if there be not above twenty Per- 
sons in the Parish of discretion to 
receive the Communion; yet there 
shall be no Communion, except four 
(or three at the leasts communicate 
with the Priest. 

II And in Cathedrals and Collegiate 
Churches and Colleges, where there 
are many Priests and Deacons, they 
shall all receive the Communion with 
the Priest every Sunday at the least, 
except they have a reasonable cause to 
the contrary. 

T And to take away all occasion of dis- 
sension and superstition, which any 
Person hath or might have concern- 
ing the Bread and Wine, it shall 
suffice that the Bread be such as is 
usual to be eaten; but the best and 
purest Wheat Bread that convenient- v 
ly may be gotten. 

If And if any of the Bread and Wine 
remain unconsecrated, the Curate 
shall have it to his own use, but if 
any remain of that which was con- 
secrated, it shall not be carried out 
of the Church, but the Priest and

such other of the Communicants, as 
he shall then call unto him, shall 
immediately after the blessing, reve- 
rently eat and drink the same. 

IF The Bread and Wine for the Com- 
munion shall be provided by the Cu- 
rate and the Church-wardens, at the 
Charges of the Parish. 

IT And note, That every Parishioner 
shall communicate at the least three 
times in the year, of which Easter is 
to be one. And yearly at Easter 
every Parishioner shall reckon with 
the Parson, Vicar, or Curate, or his 
or their Deputy or Deputies, and 
pay to them or him all Ecclesiastical 
Duties, accustomably due, then and 
at that time to be paid. 

If After the Divine Service ended, the 
Money given at the Offertory shall be 
disposed of to such pious and charita- 
ble uses, as the Minister and Church- 
wardens shall think fit. Wherein if 
any disagree, it shall he disposed of as 
the Ordinary shall appoint. 

WHEREAS it is ordained 
in this Office for the Ad- 
" ministration of the Lord's Sup- 
" per, that the Communicants 
" should receive the same kneel- 
" ing; (which order is well meant, 
" for a signification of our humble 
" and grateful acknowledgment of 
" the benefits of Christ therein

THE MINISTRATION OF 

PUBLIC BAPTISM OF 
INFANTS. > 

TO BE USED IN THE CHURCH. 

If The People are to be admonished, that 
it is most convenient that Baptism 
should not be administered but upon 
Sundays and other Holy-days, when 
the most number of People come toge- 
ther: as well for that the Congrega- 
tion there present may testify the re- 
ceiving of them that be newly baptized 
into the number of Christ s Church ; 
as also because in the Baptism of In- 
fants, every Man present may be put 
in remembrance of his own profession 
made to God in his Baptism. For 
which cause also it is expedient that 
Baptism be administered in the vul- 
gar Tongue. Nevertheless, {if neces- 
sity so require) Children may be bap- 
tized on any other day. 

1f And note, That there shall be for every 
Male Child to be baptized, two God- 
fathers and one Godmother ; and for 
every Female, one Godfather and two 
Godmothers. 

If When there are Children to be bap- 
tized, the Parents shall give know- 
ledge thereof over night, or in the 
morning before the beginning of Morn- 
ing Prayer, to the Curate. And then

THE MINISTRATION OF 

PRIVATE BAPTISM 
OF CHILDREN 

IN HOUSES. 

IT TTie Curates of every Parish shall 
often admonish the People, that they 
defer not the Baptism of their Chil* 
dren longer than the first or second 
Sunday next after their Birth, or 
other Holy-day falling between them, 
unless upon a great and reasonable 
cause, to be approved of by the Curate. 

IT And also they shall -warn them, that 
•without like great cause and necessity 
they procure not their Children to be 
baptized at home in their Houses. 
But when need shall compel them 
so to do, then Baptism shall be ad- 
ministered on this fashion : 

IT First, let the Minister of the Parish, 
(or in his absence, any other lawful 
Minister that can be procured) with 
them that are present, call upon God, 
and say the Lord's Prayer, and so 
many of the Collects appointed to be 
said before in the Form of Public 
Baptism, as the time and present 
exigence will suffer. And then, the 
Child being named by some one that 
is present, the Minister shall pour 
water upon it, saying these words : 

NTA mee dy dty vashtey, 
• Ayns ennym yn Ayr, as y, 
Vac, as y Spyrryd Noo. Amen. 



1 These rubrics do not correspond exactly with those in any Prayer Book. 

2 Sic. 

* If great need shall compel them to baptize at home in their houses, let it 
be done on this fashion. (This is repeated below.) 

* Of them (?) that are to be baptized in the house in time of necessity, by the 
Minister of the Parish, or any lawful Minister. 

5 "uiskey" omitted. 

6 If great need shall compel them to baptize at home in their houses, let it 
be done on this fashion. First let the Minister in lawful orders, and them that be 
present, call upon God for his grace, and say the Lord's Prayer, if the time will 
suffer. And then the child being named by some one that is present, the same 
lawful Minister shall dip it in water, or ponr water upon it, saying these words.

H And let them not doubt, but that the 
Child so baptized is lawfully and suf- 
ficiently baptized, and ought not to be 
baptized again. Yet nevertheless, if 
the child which is after this sort bap- 
tized, do afterward live, it is expedi- 
ent that it be brought into the Church, 
to the intent that if the Minister of 
the same Parish did himself baptize 
that Child, the congregation may be 
certified of the true form of Baptism 
by. him privately before used: In 
which case he shall say thus,

examine and try whether the Child 
be lawfully baptized or no. In which 
case, If those that bring any Child to

dren of his Parish sent unto him, as 
he shall think convenient, in some 
part of this Catechism. 

% And all Fathers, Mothers, Masters, 
and Dames , shall cause their Children, 
Servants, and Apprentices (which 
have not learned their Catechism) to 
come to the Church at the time ap- 
pointed, and obediently to hear and

2 Whose apparel let it not be outward, with braided hair and trimming about 
with gold, either in putting on of gorgeous apparel : but let the hid man, which 
is in the .heart, be without all corruption, so that the spirit be mild and quiet, 
which is a precious thing in the sight of God. For after this manner (in the 
old time) did the holy women, which trusted in God apparel themselves, being 
subject to their own husbands : as Sara obeyed Abraham calling him lord, whose 
daughters ye are made, doing well and being not dismayed with any fear. (Trans- 
lation of 1604; alterations and additions not followed.) 

3 The new married persons, the same day of their marriage, must receive the 
holy communion.

2 Thanksgiving of women after childbirth, commonly called burning of the 
candle. 

3 The woman shall come into the church, and there shall kneel' down in some 
convenient place, nigh unto the place where the table standeth : and the Priest 
standing by her, shall say these words, or such like, as the case shall require.

2 Yea, (as Saint Paul saith,) he scourgeth every son which he receiveth : if you 
endure chastisement, he offereth himself unto you as unto his own children. What 
son is he that the father chastiseth not? If ye be not under correction (whereof all 
true children are partakers), then are ye bastards and not children. Therefore see- 
ing that when our carnal fathers do correct us, we reverently obey them : shall we 
not now much rather be obedient to our spiritual Father, and so live 1 And they 
for a few days do chastise us after their own pleasure : but he doth chastise us for 
our profit, to- the intent he may make us partakers of his holiness. These words, 
good brother, are God's words.

to move such sick Persons as are of 
ability to be liberal to the poor.

to make a special Confession of his

If After which the Priest shall proceed 
according to the Form before prescrib- 
ed for the Holy Communion, begin- 
ning at these words [Ye that do truly, 
&c] 

If At the time of the distribution of the 
Holy Sacrament, the Priest shall first 
receive the Communion himself, and 
after minister unto them that are ap- 
pointed to communicate with the sick, 
and last of all to the sick Person. 

If But if a Man, either by reason of 
extremity of Sickness, or for want of 
warning in due time to the Curate, 
or for lack of company to receive with 
him, or by any other just impediment, 
do not receive the Sacrament of Christ s 
Body and Blood, the Curate shall in- 
struct him, That if he do truly re- 
pent him of his sins, and stedfastly 
believe that Jesus Christ hath suffered 
death upon the Cross for him, and 
shed his blood for his redemption, ear- 
nestly remembering the Benefits he 
hath thereby, and giving him hearty 
thanks therefore, he doth eat and 
drink the Body and Blood of our 
Saviour Christ profitably to his SouVs 
health, although he do not receive the 
Sacrament with his mouth. 

If When the sick person is visited, and 
receiveth the Holy Communion all at 
one time, then the Priest, for more 
expedition, shall cut off the Form of 
the Visitation at the Psalm (In thee, 
O Lord, have I put my trust, &c. j 
and go straight to the Communion. 

If In the time of the Plague, Sweat, or 
such other like contagious times of 
sickness or diseases, when none of the 
Parish or Neighbours can be gotten 
to communicate with the sick in their 
houses for fear of the infection, upon 
special request of the diseased the Mi- 
nister may only communicate with 
him.

H Here it is to be noted. That the Office 
ensuing is not to be used for any that

1 The Priest meeting the corpse at the church stile shall say, or else the Priest 
and Clerks shall sing, and so go either into church, or towards the grave. 

' Shall not die for ever. 

3 1 know that my Redeemer liveth, and that I shall rise out of the earth in the last 
day, and shall be covered again with my skin, and shall see God in my flesh : yea, 
and I myself shall behold him, not with other but with these same eyes.
